Common mistakes
What to avoid with this form
Contractor setup becomes messy when recruiters treat the agreement as a document only and skip the operational handoff behind it.
Missing approval owners
A contractor cannot be paid smoothly if timesheet and invoice approvers are unclear.
Ignoring client site rules
Access badges, safety requirements, equipment, and confidentiality rules can delay first-day readiness.
Mixing pay and bill details
Keep contractor-facing pay terms separate from client billing notes where access controls are needed.
