About the Event
Join Marjorie Spitz, Balance Integration's Small Business Division President for a lively and interactive discussion.
Continuing our conversations about growing a small business, this session will feature employment attorney and mediator Nance L. Schick. Together we will discuss how to avoid costly surprises when hiring workers (e.g., freelancers, independent contractors, interns, vendors), conflict resolution and how to otherwise minimize risk and stay out of court. Among the questions she will answer are:
> Hiring non-employees to build your business
- How can you be certain independent contractors are not misclassified employees and thus a fineable action by a government agency?
- What can you offer contractors and vendors vs staff (e.g., equipment, health insurance, office space, reimbursements, training)?
> Are you responsible for creating a non-hostile work environment—from discrimination to sexual misconduct?
