Employee Versus Independent Contractor: Best Practices for Preventing Worker Misclassification
Webcast CLE is not Available Mar 31, 2010 2PM ET Duration: 1 Hour
Misclassifying employees as independent contractors can expose employers to significant liability for overtime, minimum wage, taxes, benefits, unemployment insurance premiums, workers’ compensation insurance premiums, and more. With DOL, state enforcement agencies, and the plaintiffs’ class action bar focused on misclassification, it is more important than ever for employers to take a fresh look at their independent contractor practices. This webcast will provide an overview of the various factors employers must consider to determine whether a worker is an employee or an independent contractor and explore common scenarios that raise red flags for government enforcement agencies and plaintiffs’ lawyers with respect to possible misclassification.
