An employment relationship will not exist between residents and a
residential care facility seeking to establish a “family setting” for
treatment of individuals with alcohol of other drug problems when:
1. Residents perform tasks that are ordinarily done on a daily basis in
a private home and are solely for the mutual benefit of the occupants of the
home (institution).
2. Residents do not displace regular full-time employees by performing
tasks that would ordinarily be done by full-time workers.
3. Enrollment in the treatment program is of relatively short duration
(usually not longer than one year), as opposed to the long-term occupancy often
associated with institutions caring for the mentally ill, mentally retarded,
aged, or terminally ill.
4. The institution is relatively small, houses a limited number of
residents and has no paid staff other than counselors.
