Eisenberg v. Advance Relocation & Storage, Inc.
Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
JOSÉ A. CABRANES, Circuit Judge:
We consider the question of whether the plaintiff-appellant is an “employee” within the meaning of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e, et seq.

We hold that, in determining whether a worker is an employee within the meaning of Title VII and the NYHRL, courts ordinarily should place particular weight on the extent to which the hiring party controls the manner and means by which the worker completes her assigned tasks, rather than on how she is treated for tax purposes…
