The Court considered the distinction between employment and service. The Court considered, the control test, whereby a servant is subject to command of the master, the integration test, where the worker is subjected to rules and procedures of the employer, the test of economic and business reality which considers if the worker is in business on his own or works for another person, and mutuality of obligation in which parties make commitments to maintain the employment relationship over a period of time.
