Massage Therapist Was Employee

The Third Department determined claimant massage therapist was an employee of Addison Street Spa and was therefore entitled to unemployment insurance benefits:

Here, there is evidence in the record that Addison set the prices for the massages and the percentage of which claimant was paid, scheduled its clients pursuant to claimant’s weekly schedule, collected the fees from the clients and fielded any complaints. Addison required claimant to sign an agreement that she would not solicit, divert or take away any of Addison’s clients during the term of the agreement and for one year after claimant stopped providing massages at the spa. Addison provided the room, equipment and supplies and required claimant to arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled massage time and to maintain professional attire… . Matter of Fatone (Addison St. Spa, LLC–Commissioner of Labor), 2015 NY Slip Op 08488, 3rd Dept 11-19-15
