MA Governor Cracks Down on Misclassification
One by one, the states are turning up the heat on independent contractor classification. On March 12, 2008, Mass. Governor Deval Patrick signed Executive Order 499 creating a joint task force to identify and crack down on illegal misclassification of workers as independent contractors.
"Through joint efforts, the Task Force is charged with combating the underground economy and employee misclassification, including efforts to: (a) foster compliance with the law by educating business owners and employees about applicable requirements; (b) conduct joint, targeted investigations and enforcement actions against violators; (c) protect the health, safety and benefit rights of workers; and (d) restore competitive equality for law-abiding businesses."
