The U.S. Department of Labor announced the publication of a notice of proposed rule making (NPRM), Employee or Independent Contractor Classification Under the Fair Labor Standards Act in the Federal Register.
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/flsa/misclassification/rulemaking
This NPRM, Employee or Independent Contractor Classification Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, would:
- Align the Department’s approach with courts’ interpretation of the FLSA and application of the economic reality test;
- Restore the longstanding multi-factor, totality-of-the-circumstances analysis to determine whether a worker is an employee or an independent contractor under the FLSA;
- Ensure that all factors are analyzed without assigning any predetermined weight to any particular factor or set of facts;
- Return to the longstanding interpretation of the factors, including the investment factor, control factor, profit or loss factor, and the integral factor, which considers whether the work is integral to the employer’s business; and
- Rescind the 2021 Independent Contractor Rule.
