With over 25 years of HR experience, I share insights on the CRA&apos;s four key tests—control, tools and equipment, financial risk, and integration—that determine this classification. I encourage you to reflect on your current workload and consider what tasks could be delegated to free up your time for strategic growth. Additionally, I provide a decision-making checklist in your workbook to help you align your hiring choices with your long-term vision.
