• subordination and dependence of labor;
• availability of additional guarantees to the employee, established by labor legislation and other legal acts;
• employee’s performance of work in accordance with the instructions of the employer;
• employee’s integration into the employer’s organizational structure;
• recognition by the employer of the employee’s rights to weekly days off and annual leave;
• payment by the employer of expenses related to the employee’s travel in order to perform work;
• making periodic payments to an employee, which are his only and (or) main source of income;
• provision of tools, materials and mechanisms by the employer;
• as well as “other signs characteristic of labor relations” in cases stipulated by labor legislation and other regulatory legal acts.
