agree  Déborah Gelardi: If you are sure it is an employment relationship, I would suggest using employer-employee rather contractor-contractee.

disagree  Lester Tattersall: No way. Contractor is 'contratista'. As for 'employer/employee', yes, possibly, but only if that is the desired and accepted legal position, which it probably is, but may not be and would be a serious mistake if not.
