The California Supreme Court ruled nearly two years ago that the Golden State’s Wage Orders required a new test to determine who is, and is not, an independent contractor under the Orders. It is called the ABC test because it has three elements. The hiring business must prove all three, or the worker will be an employee. Last year, the California Legislature decided to apply that same test to all most all employment laws, not just the Wage Orders. It also exempted many industries, jobs, and working relationships from AB5 and the ABC test, but some of the exemptions are hard to apply. As San Diego employment attorney Ward Heinrichs shares on this episode of Big Blend Radio, now, many more workers and businesses in various job categories and industries want exemptions or less limiting ones. In many cases, such as Uber, they are fighting for them! Read Ward's article here: https://blendradioandtv.com/listing/does-anyone-like-ab5-and-the-abc-test/

Featured music is “Mrs. Lackey” by The Loose Hinges.
