Wisconsin uses a nine-factor statutory test under Wis. Stat. §108.02(12)(bm) for unemployment insurance purposes. Each factor represents a condition that must be met for independent contractor status — a worker who fails to meet any of the nine conditions may be classified as an employee. For workers' compensation, Wisconsin uses a separate test under Wis. Stat. §102.07(8) that examines similar but distinct criteria.
Whether you're hiring a Milwaukee manufacturing consultant, a Madison technology contractor, or a Green Bay construction subcontractor, Wisconsin's detailed statutory test requires careful documentation. The Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development investigates misclassification complaints and conducts audits across all industries.
SignAI generates your Wisconsin Independent Contractor Agreement with language addressing each factor under Wis. Stat. §108.02(12)(bm) — including scope of work provisions, documentation of the contractor's independent business, payment terms, and Wisconsin-specific governing law clauses.

FAQ
Under Wis. Stat. §108.02(12)(bm), an independent contractor must meet all nine conditions: (1) maintain a separate business, (2) hold a federal EIN, (3) operate under contracts, (4) incur the main expenses, (5) be responsible for satisfactory performance, (6) be able to profit or suffer loss, (7) have recurring business liabilities, (8) maintain success of the business depending on the relationship between receipts and expenses, and (9) be free from direction and control.
Misclassification in Wisconsin triggers liability for unpaid unemployment insurance taxes, workers' compensation premiums, back wages, and overtime. The Department of Workforce Development can assess penalties and interest. Under Wis. Stat. §108.24, willful misrepresentation can result in criminal penalties including fines and imprisonment. Federal IRS penalties for failure to withhold employment taxes also apply.
Wisconsin's nine-factor test under Wis. Stat. §108.02(12)(bm) is more detailed than the standard ABC test. While the ABC test has three broad prongs, Wisconsin specifies nine particular criteria — including maintaining a federal EIN, having recurring business liabilities, and being able to profit or suffer loss. Both are strict, but Wisconsin's test provides more specific benchmarks that the contractor must meet.
Yes. Wisconsin uses a different test for workers' compensation under Wis. Stat. §102.07(8). This test includes conditions similar to the unemployment test but applies specifically to whether a worker is covered by workers' compensation insurance. A contractor may satisfy one test but not the other. Your agreement should address both classification frameworks.
Yes. Wisconsin enforces reasonable non-compete agreements under Wis. Stat. §103.465. The restriction must be necessary to protect the employer's legitimate interests, be reasonable in duration and geographic scope, and not be harsh or oppressive. Wisconsin courts can modify overbroad restrictions. For independent contractors, the enforceability depends on the contractor's access to trade secrets and customer relationships.
