Navigating Use of Contractors and Nonprofit Employment Law

Looking for expert advice on your nonprofit's use of independent contractors? Classifying workers as independent contractors in California has never been easy – but it became much more difficult in 2019 due to the passage of Assembly Bill 5. In this free webinar from Nonprofits Insurance Alliance and Community Foundation Santa Cruz County, we will discuss:

• The "ABC" test used to classify workers for CA wage and hour, unemployment and workers compensation laws.
• Functions commonly contracted in the nonprofit sector and analyze how they stand up under the ABC test.
• The classification tests applicable under other federal employment laws, and the difficulty of compliance with these differing standards.
• How audits and litigation challenging worker misclassification arise, what penalties and liabilities exist, and steps to take to audit your existing contractor classifications.

This webinar is presented by Ellen Aldridge, J.D., Employment Risk Manager at Nonprofits Insurance Alliance and Kevin Heuer, Director of Engagement & Impact, Community Foundation Santa Cruz County.
