Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

734: Inside the DOL Proposal: Legal Implications for US Worker Classification
Q: What should listeners know about the public comment period and near-term horizon for this rule?
The comment period is open through late April 2026, with agencies seeking input on the rule's practical impact, effects of the 2024 rule, and whether the control factor should be prioritized; input from concrete examples may influence agency considerations going forward.
734: Inside the DOL Proposal: Legal Implications for US Worker Classification
Q: What are the practical implications for employers who rely heavily on independent contractors, and what should they be doing now in light of this proposed rule?
Employers should audit current contractor arrangements, update agreements to reflect the practical reality of supervisory control, consider how state frameworks interact with the federal standard, and monitor public comments and agency timelines as enforcement and final rules evolve.
734: Inside the DOL Proposal: Legal Implications for US Worker Classification
Q: So what does this new framework actually look like, and how does it differ from the 2024 rule in terms of how employers analyze whether someone can be properly classified as an independent contractor?
The framework emphasizes economic dependence with two core factors—control over the work and opportunity for profit or loss—while treating other factors as supplementary guides; actual practice trumps contract language, and alignment across factors strengthens the independent contractor conclusion.
733: Federal Telework Guidance: What US Employers Need to Know About Disability Accommodations
Q: Can you walk us through a concrete example from the guidance where telework would be required as a reasonable accommodation?
The guidance is cautious and does not provide a definitive example; telework is required only after in-office accommodations have been demonstrated as ineffective and the analysis remains fact-specific and individualized. This reinforces that telework is a last-resort option tied to essential job functions.
729: 2026 Employment Law Year in Review: Peru
Q: What should employers do now to stay compliant ahead of 2026?
Prioritize internal compliance audits tying payroll, tax, and labor records together; monitor the Supreme Court's ruling on outsourcing to adjust business models; strengthen reporting and documentation to respond effectively to inductive letters; and build flexible workforce strategies in anticipation of policy changes during the election year, avoiding reactive decisions and staying ahead of regulatory shifts.
