About this file

This is an Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) Independent Contractor/Worker Acknowledgment form that must be completed by individuals providing personal services to public employers in Ohio who are classified as independent contractors rather than public employees. The form must be submitted within 30 days of beginning services and contains sections for personal information, public employer details, and service dates. The form is used to formally acknowledge that the contractor understands they will not have OPERS contributions made on their behalf.

The document outlines eight key criteria defining an independent contractor under Ohio Administrative Code section 145-1-42(A)(2), including payment arrangements, ineligibility for benefits, and tax reporting requirements. Contractors have the right to request an OPERS determination of their employment classification within five years of beginning services. The form explicitly states that independent contractors are not eligible for OPERS contributions or certain medical expense reimbursements under the OPERS Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) and OPERS Retiree Medical Account (RMA) programs. Both the public employer and OPERS must retain copies of this acknowledgment form.
