"Worker misclassification in the temporary healthcare staffing industry"
Join us on Tuesday, May 2 at 1:00pm ET
Digital platforms are one of the fastest growing segments of the temporary healthcare staffing industry. Today, some workers are being misclassified as 1099 independent contractors rather than W-2 employees, reducing worker-related costs. This practice can expose healthcare providers, clinicians and patients to significant risks.
An expert panel will discuss:
- The temporary healthcare staffing industry and the significance of the worker misclassification issue.
- The risks of 1099 independent contractors for health care providers.
- How misclassification affects health care workers and patient outcomes.
- Recent lawsuits and regulatory actions that target worker misclassification.
Moderated by McKnight’s Executive Editor, James M. Berklan, you will hear from special guests, former Senator Tom Daschle (D-SD), CEO and Founder of The Daschle Group, and Congresswoman Alma Adams (D-NC), Ranking Member for the Education & Workforce Subcommittee on Workforce Protections, followed by a panel of experts including:
