Bill overview
This bill creates an exemption for merchandisers contracting with retailers and brands in the consumer-packaged goods industry. Specifically, it allows for stand-alone in-store inventory and product placement labor or services to be considered independent contractor work under certain conditions. These conditions include operating as a sole proprietor, maintaining a separate business location, negotiating their own rates, and not being subject to the hiring entity’s control. The bill amends existing labor law to clarify this exemption and establish specific criteria for determining independent contractor status in these arrangements.
