For states which have outlawed Independent Contractors, like CA, what are the labor model and driver payment options available to carriers? Hear about the options once your state has disallowed the utilization of ICs. Will the attack on ICs extend to the upcoming Department of Labor (DOL) and the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) rulemaking process? If the DOL or NLRB effectively disallows ICs, what areas of law or unionization activities are affected? And how does the recent joint action of the NLRB and Department of Justice (Antitrust Division) factor into this equation? How will the CLDA be working to preserve our continued utilization of ICs and how can you help?

At the CLDA’s 2022 Executive Leadership Summit, speaker Jennifer McClure discussed the topic of Surviving the Great Resignation: A Roadmap to Meet the Workforce Challenges of Today and Prepare for Future Success. Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, a multitude of things have changed – from how we approach everyday life to the structure of a normal workday, nothing feels the same. And in that shift, an interesting trend has emerged: people are quitting their jobs for a variety of reasons, including better career opportunities, changes in their life circumstances, or for some, burnout. Some are even exiting the workforce entirely. In the midst of these concerns, there’s good news for the employers who make the changes necessary to meet the needs and expectations of the workforce of today, in order to remain competitive and to grow their businesses in the future.
