纽约浮动法案以规范独立承包商
经过理查德·德·安布罗西奥(Richard D’Ambrosio)/
纽约州参议院提出一项法案,该法案would amend state labor laws, tightening the definition of independent contractors and full-time employees.
参议院法案S6699A,由罗伯特·杰克逊(Robert Jackson)赞助(D,31岁)英石District) would declare someone an employee, and not an independent contractor, unless the individual met all of the following conditions:
1)个人不受招聘实体的控制和方向与工作的绩效有关,无论是根据工作的履行而言,实际上是在合同下。
2)个人执行的工作超出了招聘实体业务的通常课程。
3) The individual is customarily engaged in an independently established trade, occupation, or business of the same nature as that involved in the work performed.
该法案目前是参议院规则委员会的,直到州立法机关于2020年1月重新召集之前,预计拟议的立法没有任何行动。
In an announcement to members, the American Society of Travel Advisors (ASTA) said: “As expected, it looks like the fight over independent contractor (IC) status is moving to the Empire State.” ASTA said the bill “threatens the independent advisor model in the State,” as it would “would implement the so-called ‘ABC test’ to determine if a worker is an employee or an independent contractor, with no exemptions at the moment,” similar to Assembly Bill 5 in California.
ASTA在其会员声明中说:“至关重要的是要修改这项立法,以保护数十年来我们行业存在的独立顾问模式,并为成千上万的小型企业主提供了机会。”
“我们怀疑其他行业已经在努力豁免,因此现在是时候采取行动了,即使立法机关直到一月才恢复会议。”正如其他立法斗争中的ASTA敦促成员通过该组织的基层门户。
旅行顾问将无法在最初的加利福尼亚A.B.下作为独立顾问。5拟议的立法。尽管拟议的法律包括医生,会计师,房地产经纪人和财务顾问在内的拟议法律,但旅行顾问并未被排除在外。
Working with a group of like-minded lobbyists and advocates, ASTA conducted an aggressive education campaign with California legislators, including A.B. 5 sponsor Assembly Member Lorena Gonzalez,旅行顾问被豁免just as the bill went to a full California Senate vote.
ASTA一直警告其成员,无论A.B.的结果如何5,加利福尼亚建议可能会扫过东给其他关注错误分类员工的州。
Senator Jackson has been known to work on behalf of small business owners, so ASTA and its members may have a receptive ear with the Senator. As a member of the New York City Council, he sponsored the Small Business Jobs Survival Act, a controversial proposal in New York that would apply a form of rent control on commercial storefronts.
Jackson, whose district covers a narrow but miles-long stretch of the West Side of Manhattan, claimed rent restrictions on landlords would help slow down the rapid rise in commercial rental rates in the five boroughs, which are putting many small business.
