It examines the tests used and factors weighed when determining "employee status" under federal and state statutes and Case Law.

It also shows how contingent employment is affected by income and employment taxes, employee benefits, ERISA and recent cases affecting rights of contingent workers, Worker's Compensation, privacy laws, whistleblower laws, The National Labor Relations Act, federal anti-discrimination laws, third-party provider licensing and registration regulations, and more.
