Overview
Sara Jodka was recently quoted in the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) article, “Federal Bill Would Offer Some Legal Protections for Gig Workers.” The article discusses the bill proposed in the U.S. House of Representatives by a bipartisan group of legislators to allow businesses to continue classifying their gig workers as independent contractors while providing the gig workers with some legal protections. Sara stated, “The law would create a clear way for employers to work with [gig workers] and save money on their federal tax liabilities, but at the same time [it would] require those employers to treat those workers the same way it treats its W2 employees for purposes of workplace treatment and federal leave laws.”
