Biden administration revamps gig worker rule: The new rule makes it harder to classify workers as independent contractors.
axios.com/2024/01/09/biden-administration-revamps-gig-worker-rule
Quick Glance: New Biden Administration Rule May Impact 'Gig' Work and Contracting
- The U.S. Department of Labor has issued a final rule that will compel companies to treat some workers as employees rather than cheaper independent contractors.
- The rule is expected to increase labor costs for industries reliant on contract labor or freelancers, such as trucking, manufacturing, healthcare, and app-based 'gig' services.
- Most federal and state labor laws, like those mandating a minimum wage and overtime pay, only apply to a company's employees.
- Studies indicate that employees can cost companies up to 30% more than independent contractors.
