Common Wage Hour Myths and Misclassifications for Healthcare Employers (presented by attorneys Hagood Tighe, Megan Janes, and Julia Sherwood)

Healthcare is one of the largest and fastest-growing industries in the country, which effectively places a bullseye on employers for costly litigation and administrative claims. Fisher Phillips will discuss how industry norms have become costly missteps in terms of Department of Labor (DOL) investigations and employee litigation, and share some of the most common classification mistakes we see. Our focus will be on exempt status classification, employee v. contractor (W2 v. 1099) status, and related myths, all through the lens of federal wage and hour law. This podcast will highlight practical tips for employers to avoid and a blueprint for staying in compliance.
