Will The Real Independent Contractor Please Stand Up
This webinar will address the challenging question facing employers in California, “Do I have employees or independent contractors?”
Our presenter will talk about the Dynamex Decision, as it has become known, which applies a standard that presumes all workers are employees instead of contractors. She will discuss the landmark 2018 California Supreme Court decision in the matter of Dynamex Operations West, Inc., which applies a standard that presumes all workers are employees instead of contractors. In April 2019, California adopted an employment-classification test, which places the burden on employers to demonstrate that every worker is not an employee.
What you will learn:
- Benefits & Risks of Using Independent Contractors
- The New ABC Test
- Borello Test
- Personal Liability for misclassifications
- Post-Dynamex Questions
