Current through Bulletin 2024-12, June 15, 2024
Section R994-205-102 - Exempt Family Service

Certain family service is exempt from coverage under the Act based upon the type of employing entity.

(1) Sole proprietorship exempt family service includes the following relationships:
(a) A worker employed by his or her spouse.
(b) A parent employed by his or her son or daughter. The exemption also applies to a stepparent employed by his or her stepchild.
(c) A child under the age of 21 employed by his or her parent regardless of the child's marital status. The exempt relationship is met even if the child is an adopted child, stepchild, or foster child. The foster child must be living with the foster parent.
(2) Partnership family service is exempt from coverage if the worker has an exempt family relationship to all partners. Exempt family relationships are the same relationships as for sole proprietorships in subsection (1) of this section. However, it is not necessary for the same relationship to exist between the worker and each partner.
(a) Examples of partnership family relationships that are exempt include:
(i) A child employed by a partnership composed of the child's parents.
(ii) A woman employed by a partnership composed of her husband and her son.
(b) Examples of partnership family relationships that are not exempt include:
(i) A woman employed by a partnership composed of her husband and his brother is not exempt because the required family relationship between the woman and her brother-in-law does not exist.
(ii) A man employed by a partnership composed of his wife and his son-in-law is not exempt because the required family relationship between the man and his son-in-law does not exist.
(3) There are no exempt family relationships in corporations, limited liability companies, and any other entity types not discussed in this section.
