You should first determine if the individuals will be independent contractors or employees. Regardless, you should also have a written employment agreement / contract also setting forth the salary, basis for termination and other relevant terms.
Feel free to contact me should you wish to discuss this further.

First of all, you don't want employees - you want independent contractors. That will save you the hassle of payroll deductions, unemployment insurance, social security, minimum wage law and other legal nuances. You need a relatively simple agreement that protects you from any illegal acts they may partake in and covers their obligation to behave professionally and the monetary agreement between you.
