Thursday, March 21 | Webinar

9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Join Labor & Employment Attorney, Jeffrey Risch, for a timely webinar discussing and examining the Illinois Prevailing Wage Act, and, more importantly, what the current Administration will do and say in administering and enforcing the law. Of course, new legislative changes designed to make suing contractors easier and expanding the scope of Illinois’ prevailing wage law will also be examined. Additionally, a dive into new Davis-Bacon changes will be examined as well for those needing to know how Federal prevailing wage law works – generally and with particular focus on the new Davis-Bacon Rule published by the U.S. Department of Labor last Fall. 

Attorney Risch has dedicated over 22 years of his practice helping construction industry employers navigate through prevailing wage laws. This timely live webinar is not to be missed for any organization that performs or contracts under, or in any way pursuant to, local, state or federal prevailing wage laws.

Thursday, March 28 | Webinar

9:00 AM - 12:00 PM

The U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) recently issued a final Rule which reverts the independent contractor analysis back to a multifactor, totality-of-the-circumstances review that, as compared to the current federal DOL Rule in place will almost assuredly result in more workers being classified as employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act.  The federal DOL’s final Rule – which rescinds and replaces the current Rule – has an effective date of March 11, 2024. Join UBGreensfelder Labor and Employment Attorney Scott Cruz as he offers guidance for employers to ensure their compliance with the new federal DOL Rule and addresses key differences between the new federal DOL test under the new Rule and the Illinois Department of Labor’s independent contract test.
