An employee (servant) who works for an employer (master):

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An employee who works for an employer can also be an agent for the same employer as part of their relationship, can be subject to the control of details of work by the employer (which is often a defining characteristic of employee status), and can be held responsible for torts committed in the course of employment under certain conditions (though the employer may also have vicarious liability). The statement about not being an independent contractor is misleading because while an employee cannot be an independent contractor in the same role (as these are distinct classifications), they could potentially serve in a different capacity or role as an independent contractor. Therefore, none of the other choices accurately describe the limitations or characteristics of the employee-employer relationship.
