PART-TIME BOOKKEEPER WAS AN EMPLOYEE

The Third Department determined claimant, a part-time bookkeeper for AIS, was an employee entitled to unemployment insurance benefits:

Here, claimant responded to a job advertisement placed by AIS, submitted a resume and was interviewed by AIS’s office manager. She was hired at an agreed-upon hourly wage and performed her duties at AIS, where she shared an office with the clinical director and was provided with a computer, bookkeeping software, an email account and a key to the office. Although she was not required to work a set schedule, claimant testified that she was expected to work a total of 24 hours per week. She was also expected to notify AIS of the specific hours that she would be working each week and submit documentation detailing her hours, which had to be reviewed and approved by the clinical director in order to receive payment. She was paid by means of a biweekly paycheck, although payroll taxes were not deducted. In addition, she was required to attend staff meetings when they dealt with business-related matters, and she interacted with both AIS personnel as well as its outside certified public accountant regarding such matters. In our view, the foregoing illustrates that AIS retained sufficient control over claimant’s work to be considered her employer… . Matter of Stewart (American Inst. for Stuttering–Commissioner of Labor), 2016 NY Slip Op 01720, 3rd Dept 3-10-16
