Per SHRM if you hire contract workers, there are new rules from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) you should be aware of. The key issue focuses on contract employees who are shared by more than one employer, and who is liable for the workers' pay and hours under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). More businesses are changing their staffing models by sharing employees or using staffing agencies, according to DOL Wage and Hour Administrator David Weil, explaining why the department issued guidance—Administrator’s Interpretation No. 2016-1—on joint employment.
