One interesting point - Independent Contractors are not subject to the RTS.
I would expect that there will be a move to transition some employees to independent contractors.
Yup—key employees will be able to be independent contractors or get handed religious exemption forms to sign.
Regular folks are gonna get bent over...
Some animals are more equal than others.
No, businesses will require IC to provide their own business protocols as part of a renegotiated contract. Trickledown theory at work.
Now you know why the commie dems are so hot to pass laws that make gig workers be considered as FTEs.
I would expect that there will be a move to transition some employees to independent contractors.
I've already received 1 email from a US subsidiary of a German company inquiring about the vaccination status of our employees -- those that might be visiting their facilities, or sub-contractors that might perform work there.
I'm ignoring it for now. This is clearly a blast email using their entire vendor contact list. We supply parts and this request -- legal or not -- wouldn't seem applicable to what we do.
And then what do you do for health insurance?
Better hope your gig kicks in an extra $2,000 a month for individual crappy health insurance. Of course, COBRA for 18 months will get that cost down to around 900-1100 a month so there’s that.
