A Kansas independent contractor agreement establishes the terms and conditions of an arrangement between a contractor and their client involving an exchange of services for financial compensation. The agreement outlines important components of the arrangement, such as what type of services will be performed, payment amount and schedule, date of completion, expenses, and termination options.

An independent contract agreement also solidifies the relationship between the client and the contractor. More specifically, the contract describes that the contractor is not an employee of the client, and that they are solely responsible for insuring themselves and their workers, for obtaining the proper business licenses and permits, and for performing the services using their own methods, as long as they comply with industry standards.
