By creating a unified set of standards under the Fair Labor Standards Act, millions of workers and the companies that use their services will have to reevaluate their work status. On this podcast, Josh Joel hosts Stanton Law attorney Dani Berry to discuss the economic reality test that classifies workers, the industries that need to pay the most attention to these changes, and how companies can avoid costly lawsuits by complying with the new rules. Note, the topics discussed in this podcast are informational and do not constitute legal advice. If you have questions about your employee’s work status, the attorneys at Stanton Law can help.
