About this file

This document is an Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) Independent Contractor/Worker Acknowledgment form, required for individuals who begin providing personal services to Ohio public employers on or after January 7, 2013, but are not considered public employees. The form must be completed within 30 days of beginning services and consists of three main sections: Personal Information, Public Employer Information, and Acknowledgment. The document outlines the service relationship between independent contractors and public employers in Ohio.

The form details eight specific criteria that define an independent contractor under Ohio Administrative Code section 145-1-42(A)(2), including contractual payment arrangements, ineligibility for benefits and workers' compensation, and requirements for self-supplied equipment. The document emphasizes that independent contractors are not eligible for OPERS contributions and have five years to request a determination of their status if they disagree with their classification. It also includes important provisions regarding retirees who return to work, noting potential implications for healthcare reimbursement arrangements (HRA) and retiree medical accounts (RMA). The form must be retained by the public employer with a copy sent to OPERS for record-keeping purposes.
