Sets strict rules for when businesses are responsible for another company's workers
This bill would make it harder for one business to be held responsible for another company's workers. It sets clear, strict rules for when a business is considered a 'joint employer.' This means a business would only be responsible for workers it directly controls, affecting how workers can bargain or seek help for issues.
Today, the definition of a 'joint employer' can be broad. This allows agencies and courts to decide when multiple businesses are responsible for workers. If this bill passes, a business would only be considered a joint employer if it directly, actually, and immediately controls key aspects of another company's employees' work. This includes things like hiring, pay, or daily supervision.
