• Endeavor to build an understanding in each of the factors so that you can at least begin the process of determining whether an individual is properly classified within your workforce.
• Discuss how that rule is applied not only by the DOL but also other agencies and the Courts, both on a federal level and state of Florida level.
• Learn some HR tips to reviewing and documenting that you have assessed and determined that your workers are properly classified under the new guidelines.
