Bio:The Department of Labor recently released new guidance (Administrator's Interpretation No. 2015-1) on how it will decide whether a worker is properly classified as an employee or an independent contractor. Although the factors discussed in the Administrator's Interpretation are not new, the DOL's broad reading of the term “employee” under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the heightened focus on the “economic realities” of the business relationship between the worker and the purported employer indicate that wage and hour misclassification will be an enforcement priority for the DOL going forward.
Admitted:2014, Kansas; 2013, Missouri
