As an independent contractor, can my employer change my rate of pay without telling me even if they owe me weeks of work that I believe I'm working for a different amount of money?
Answer
If you are an independent contractor, then you essentially have a contract to perform a certain type of work for a specific amount of money. If you are now being paid a different amount than was agreed upon for work you already performed, the employer has likely breached the contract. However, if your employer wishes to pay you a different amount of money for work that you have not already performed, then he may do so if you do not have a contract that states otherwise.
