Applicability of the gig workers on independent phlebotomist

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 03 January 2021 This query is : Resolved
Dear Experts,

One of our client is in process of having an arrangement for inducting Phlebotomists to work as independent contractors on a revenue sharing arrangement, wherein no employment relationship will apply.

Now, the new Social Security Code has introduced a concept known as "Gig Worker" which means a person who performs work or participates in a work arrangement and earns from such activities outside of traditional employer-employee relationship. e.g., the freelancers etc.

My query is whether this "Gig Workers" concept will be applicable on the above-mentioned arrangement of my client? If so, what all compliances will apply?
