Enforcement Analyst (EA) Joshua Rarela, with the Home Care Services Branch (HCSB), conducted an onsite inspection for the purpose of a Complaint Investigation. The EA met with the Home Care Organization (HCO) administrator named above.

During the course of the investigation, the EA interviewed HCO personnel and reviewed records, including HCO Guardian Roster Associations and the HCA Registry Database for the alleged independent contractor. Additionally, the EA examined the HCO's California Form DE-9 (Quarterly Contribution Return and Report of Wages), a mandatory tax form for all California employers to report total wages, withholdings, and payroll taxes to the Employment Development Department (EDD).

It was alleged that the HCO utilized an independent contractor to provide home care services.

(CONTINUED)

HCO personnel stated that the organization does not utilize Home Care Aides in an independent contractor capacity. The EA's examination of the California Form DE-9 confirmed the processing of statutory withholdings for Home Care Aides. Under the Employment Development Department guidelines, such withholdings are consistent with an employer-employee relationship rather than an independent contractor engagement.

Based on the EA's observations, interviews and records review, there was insufficient evidence to prove the allegation as the preponderance of evidence standard was not met although the allegation may have happened or is valid, therefore the allegation is found to be unsubstantiated. A copy of this report and appeal rights were provided to the HCO.
