About this file

The document is an Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) Independent Contractor/Worker Acknowledgment form designed for individuals providing personal services to a public employer on or after January 7, 2013, who are not considered public employees. The two-page form requires independent contractors to complete personal and public employer information, and acknowledge their classification status, with submission required within 30 days of beginning service provision.

The form details specific criteria for independent contractor classification under Ohio Administrative Code, including being party to a bilateral agreement, being paid by contractual arrangement, not being eligible for worker's compensation, not appearing on a public employer's payroll, providing personal supplies and equipment, and receiving an Internal Revenue Service Form 1099 for tax reporting. The document emphasizes that independent contractors cannot contribute to the OPERS retirement system and may face limitations on future retirement benefits, particularly if providing services to the same employer from which they retired. Contractors must sign the form acknowledging these terms and understand they have the right to request a determination of their eligibility for OPERS membership.
