Webinar Recording: Maximizing Independent Contractor Models in Massachusetts: Insights and Strategies After Patel and Weiss

About the Program

Massachusetts' independent contractor classification laws are among the toughest in the nation, but recent appellate court decisions have provided much-needed clarity. The rulings in Patel v. 7-Eleven, Inc. and Weiss v. Loomis, Sayles & Co. affirm that legitimate independent contractor relationships can survive even given the stringent "ABC test." 

Join us as we break down these significant decisions and offer practical tips for businesses when it comes to utilizing independent contractor models and relationships. Topics will include:

·    An analysis of the Patel and Weiss decisions and their implications for independent contractor classification.

·    Understanding the "service" threshold before applying the ABC test and what these rulings mean for your business.

·    Practical strategies for maintaining compliant independent contractor relationships and to better utilize independent contractor models in Massachusetts.
