SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: Getting it Right: Full or Part-time Employee Versus Independent Contractor
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE!\n\n\n\nWith the rise of the gig economy and the Great Resignation\, more and more workers are striking out on their own. Business owners and workers alike may think that an independent contractor relationship is a win-win. However\, misclassifying a worker as an "independent contractor" when they are legally considered an "employee" opens employers up to significant liability. Most people don't realize that whether you agree in a contract\, or whether you pay someone on a 1099 is not the deciding factor\, because the law defines both of these classifications. In this program\, Valerie will discuss how to determine whether a person you hire should be an employee\, even if they want to be an independent contractor\, the risks of getting it wrong\, and ways to avoid getting in trouble.\n\n\n\nAbout Presenter Valerie Ferrier\n\n\n\nValerie K. Ferrier has been an employment lawyer for fifteen years and is Co-Chair of the Labor & Employment Practice Group at Kane Kessler\, P.C. She works with business owners to help them understand and comply with the law in multiple jurisdictions. Valerie drafts employment and separation agreements and employee handbooks\, conducts anti-harassment training\, defends overtime and discrimination cases\, and provides advice to clients. Valerie acts as "external HR" for many small businesses who don't have the need or resources for a full-time HR Department\, but still have all the same day to day HR-issues as any Fortune 500 company.\n\n\n\nAbout Moderator Jerry Kajpust\, MA\, ACC (he/him) | Jerry Kajpust Coaching & Consulting\nAs a Professional Development Coach\, Jerry Kajpust embraces each person's unique humanity\, inspiring and empowering them to take professional and personal risks to maximize their potential and unblock barriers.
