Compliance Poster Company alerts New Hampshire employers of changes to the Employee Misclassification Law. Proper classification of workers has critical implications with regard to labor standards such as:
- Minimum wage and overtime
- Unemployment insurance
- Workers’ compensation
- Federal and state payroll taxes
- Business profit taxes
- Workplace safety and health
Under New Hampshire Revised Statutes 281-A:2 VI(b), a list of criteria must be met to be considered an independent contractor. That list has been reduced from 12 criteria to 7. If an individual fails to meet even one of the criteria they cannot qualify as an independent contractor.
Compliance Poster Company has updated its NH State and Federal All-On-One labor law poster dated 8/2012.
