In New Jersey, multiple tests have been applied in workers' compensation cases to determine whether a claimant is eligible for compensation as an employee or ineligible as an independent contractor including:

The "control test"
The "relative nature of the work test”
The “12 part Larsen test”

In a UEC matter, the New Jersey Supreme Court applied the “ABC Test." A bill has been presented to find all domestic workers to be employees. What does that mean for workers' compensation claims and what test should you apply in making your compensability decision?

Join Weber Gallagher partners Jeffrey Newby and Vanessa Mendelewski as they discuss how businesses and employers should address the issue of independent contractors. Jeff and Vanessa will review the case law surrounding this issue, potential legislation, and more.
