Impact of Janus on Local Governments
*FREE FOR IMLA MEMBERS! CLE available to Kitchen Sink Subscribers and in some cases to others but fees may apply.
The United States Supreme Court has recently overturned years of precedent and ruled that a public-sector employer could not deduct an agency fee, or any other form of payment, to a public-sector union from an employee’s pay unless the employee affirmatively consented to the payment. Public agencies will feel an immediate impact by the Janus v. American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees decision in terms of how they collect fees — and potentially how they communicate about such to their employees. Join this webinar to learn more about how your local government clients will be affected by this recent decision.

Employee vs. Independent Contractor
This portion of the webinar focuses on issues relating to classification of individuals as employees and independent contractors. Both the US Department of Labor and the IRS (and some state lab or departments) have an interest in how employees are treated. Although the US DofL has withdrawn its administrative interpretation of several years ago, the consequences of misclassification continue to be significant. The webinar will seek to provide guidance on this important topic.
