Description

[55 A.D.2d 762 Page 762] Four days prior to February 20, 1973 Empire Improvements, Inc., hired claimant to do roofing work on several houses. Empire agreed to pay claimant at the rate of $10 per square for laying new shingles and $15 per square for ripping off old ones. Claimant fell off the roof and broke his hip. There is no dispute about the testimony before the referee. Claimant was hired, taken to the work site by a representative of Empire, and given a work sheet which outlined the work to be done. Empire supplied the new shingles but claimant used his own tools and ladder and supplied his own transportation to and from the work site. No Social Security or tax payments were withheld from his pay. The question of whether or not an employment relationship exists is factual and no one fact can be exclusively relied upon to prove or disprove the relationship. This court has held that the use of one's own tools (Matter of Wheeler v Kayfetz Prods., 38 A.D.2d 667), lump sum payments (cf. Matter of Klein v Sunrise Bldg. Co., 7 A.D.2d 805) or the fact that no Social Security or tax payments were withheld (cf. Matter of Waterbury v Dieges & Clust, 284 App Div 912), while factors to be considered, are not determinative of the question of employer-employee relationship.
