Fisher Phillips Partners Pen Article on Fate of Joint Employer Rule

Publication

11.01.21

In their article for PEO Insider, John Polson and Marty Heller provide an update on the Trump-era attempt to shield businesses from being considered joint employers. The article provides historical context of the joint employer rule, including why businesses celebrated its enactment in March 2020 and most recently, why the 2ndCircuit Court of Appeals agreed with an earlier DOL ruling to kill off the ruling leaving it completely dead once and for all. John and Marty suggest that PEOs should prepare for coming sea change in enforcement and review current business practices, service agreements, onboarding and other templates for compliance and potential joint employer issues.
