Question
We are creating an innovative marketplace for healthcare services. On the marketplace, healthcare professionals would be matched with customers, while we take a fee either based on individual transactions or a subscription scheme. Given the success of platforms such as oDesk or Uber, what exactly is the employment status of the service providers and what would that mean for us legally and regarding taxes?

Hi!
Please make your question more detailed. At least we must know the country which is concerned.
Normally those questions cannot be answered in a general way but only within an all-embracing counseling. Generally spoken it is a matter of contract design.
Feel free to specify your question.
Warmest regards
