The Leeway And Limits Of DOL's Joint Employer Proposal
A recent U.S. Department of Labor proposal would make joint employment harder to prove, giving employers more flexibility. The U.S. Department of Labor has proposed new rules that could change how joint employment is defined. Joint employment is when two or more employers share responsibility for one employee. These changes could affect many industries, including construction, healthcare, and hospitality.
What This Means For Employers
Employers should be aware that the new rules will not override state law tests or standards used by courts. This means that employers will still need to follow state laws and regulations, even if they are not subject to federal rules.
What To Do Next
Employers should consult with lawyers to understand how the new rules may affect their business. They should also review their contracts and policies to ensure they are in compliance with the new rules.
What to do next
- H-1B Work Visa — Order
- Application for Employment Authorization — Order
