A quick solo session from Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast host Ari Kwiatkowski, episode 47 introduces listeners to the “New US DOL Independent Contractor Rule: How to Classify Personnel.” With gratitude for her first year of creating this podcast, Ari introduces the topic, her last for 2022. Mentioning some background and shifts between the rule from the Trump to Biden administrations, Ari notes this development is important for both employers and employees in terms of salary, tax issues, minimum wage, exemptions, and overtime eligibility. Listen in to learn how to determine if someone is an employee or an independent contractor, and be sure to come back next year for more on all things labor and employment.
