Misclassification is a pain point in a variety of industries, especially those that utilize owner-operator workforces. Everyone knows they want to avoid a misclassification claim, but few understand exactly what that means. The term “misclassification” represents a broad spectrum of legal woes. It might include workers’ compensation claims, unemployment claims, civil action claims, Department of Labor claims, and many other types of claims at various levels of government. Differences in state and federal law further complicate the issue.
Openforce’s Ryan Kelly will provide a blueprint for jump-starting risk mitigation. Ryan will discuss the types of misclassification claims and how they affect companies with owner-operator workforces.
As a webinar participant, you will receive information on how such claims are changing based on an evolving regulatory landscape, including AB5, the ABC test, and more.
