a few years ago one of the managers that came to work for me had previously had her status changed from employee to contract worker by the company she worked for at the time.
She declined the offer and filed for unemployment. The Calif. EDD denied her claim on the basis that she had voluntarily declined the employment offer.

I was doing some independent insurance inspections from some companies from the east coast and they informed me that the IRS had reclassified the independents as employees and we would hence force be required to submit time and charges for every inspection, plus payroll taxes would be withheld, mileage would be noted for every inspection. yada, yada, yada.
