Topics include:

  • Strategies to structure defensible independent contract relationships
  • Identifying the risks associated with the misclassification of workers, including liability for employment taxes, wage and hour, employee benefits, whistleblower damages, and other civil and criminal consequences
  • Practical approaches to minimize and resolve worker classification problems, including the latest on the federal and New York amnesty programs. 2 hours of CPE credit will be available
