Legislation targets misuse of independent contractors - Workday Minnesota
Nelson's legislation would require any construction worker claiming to be an independent contractor to register with and receive certification from the state. Contractors could not hire workers as independent contractors unless they have state certification. Contractors also could not coerce workers into filing for independent contractor status.
The state will certify workers as independent contractors only if they pay a $150 registration fee and demonstrate they meet all nine of the requirements in current law that distinguish independent contractors from construction employees.------------------------------------------- posted 6:59 AM :: reference link ::
