Kentucky legal context
Kentucky applies the IRS-style common-law right-to-control test for classification. Common-law contract rules govern scope, payment, and IP. Restrictive covenants are evaluated under common-law reasonableness, and the Kentucky Uniform Trade Secrets Act (KRS §§ 365.880 et seq.) protects trade secrets.
