John Polson Pens Article for Staffing Success on Managing Antitrust Violation Risks

In a bylined article published in Staffing Success Magazine, John Polson discusses a recent case where a Nevada health care staffing firm pled guilty to criminal antitrust allegations for workplace misdeeds.

According to the indictment, the company made a pact with a competitor not to recruit each other’s nurses and to fix their wages.

He proceeds to outline six steps for antitrust compliance for staffing companies.
