Joint Employer Status

by | Aug 25, 2016 | News

We reported earlier on Microsoft’s attempt to fight off a joint employer investigation. In July the NLRB denied Microsoft’s petition to revoke the board’s petition. The tenuous vehicle used to attempt to force the joint employer connection in the Microsoft case was a corporate social responsibility policy. The board struck again in Miller Anderson, Inc. In a related offshoot to the joint employer question, Subway decided to partner with the DOL in a move to improve FLSA compliance among Subway franchisees. Although the agreement does not address joint employer, it remains to be seen how such an alliance may impact the joint employer status under scrutiny of the NLRB.
