Independent Contractor and Indemnity Clause Samples
The Independent Contractor and Indemnity clause establishes that the parties involved are acting as independent contractors rather than as employer and employee, and it sets out the responsibility for indemnification between them. Typically, this means that each party is responsible for its own employees, taxes, and liabilities, and one party may agree to compensate the other for losses arising from certain actions or omissions. The core function of this clause is to clarify the legal relationship between the parties and allocate risk, ensuring that neither party is held liable for the other's actions or obligations.
