澳门六合彩开奖预测 Opposes Rollback of FLSA Independent Contractor & Joint Employer Rules

澳门六合彩开奖预测 filed comments opposing the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) Wage and Hour Division鈥檚 (WHD) recent proposals to withdrawal the Independent Contractor status and rescind the Joint Employer definition under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). 澳门六合彩开奖预测 supports the Trump administration鈥檚 previous revisions to both rules, opposes these recent DOL actions and fully expects the opportunity to provide public input on any future revision or adoption of guidance regarding either rule.

澳门六合彩开奖预测 has long called for federal clarification of the independent contractor status and preservation of legitimate independent contractor relationships, such as those that have historically existed in the construction industry. Likewise, 澳门六合彩开奖预测 has also called for the adoption of a consistent, common-sense standard for determining joint employer status under the FLSA (Part 791) and supports the acknowledgment that the facts of the relationship between the employee and the employer should govern the joint employer determination, not the structure of the relationship between purported joint employers or business-to-business partners.
