What is the "integration factor" in the test for determining whether an employee is "integrated" into the employer's business?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Cambrian College v. M.N.R., 2004 TCC 586 (CanLII):
In Canada v. Rouselle et al.[10], Hugessen J. made the following comments on the integration test: The judge did not mention the factor of "integration" as such. Clearly in light of the case law cited above, it was not essential for him to speak of it. However, if he had considered it is apparent that, from the employees' standpoint, the latter were not in any way integrated into the employer's business. Their comings and goings, their hours and even their weeks of work were not in any way integrated into or coordinated with the operations of the company paying them. Although their work was done for the company's business, it was not an integral part of it but purely incidental to it.
