If the person you hire is TRULY an independent contractor, you are not responsible for any of that.

Gee I hope this is a homework question.
Go to irs.gov and type [employee contractor ] into the search box and click go.
Also look at W-9 vs W-4.

There is much more to it than that.
You CAN NOT just declare someone to be an independent contractor on your own
The arrangement must fit the legal definition.
