Philadelphia Misclassification of Workers Attorney

Home/Philadelphia Misclassification of Workers Attorney

Miller Shah understands that employee misclassification is not just a technicality.  Rather, this complex and challenging issue has profound implications on the legal rights and benefits workers receive. We are committed to providing comprehensive legal services to both employees and employers to address and resolve these intricate issues. Our Philadelphia misclassification attorneys offer sophisticated legal counsel to untangle the complexities of misclassification and strive to maximize adherence to evolving labor laws.

Forms of Employee Misclassification

Employee misclassification can occur in several forms, all of which significantly impact the lives of workers. One common form is the misclassification of employees as independent contractors, which can unfortunately happen as a result of employers attempt to avoid providing the benefits and protections that come with employee status, such as health insurance, overtime pay, and retirement contributions. Another common form of misclassification is the incorrect classification of non-exempt employees as exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which can deny employees of overtime compensation rightfully earned. Each of these misclassifications can lead to significant financial and legal consequences for affected workers.

Impact on Wrongfully Classified Employees

The repercussions of employee misclassification are extensive and can severely affect the livelihoods of workers. Misclassified workers may miss out on crucial benefits, such as overtime pay, health insurance, and paid time off, that they would otherwise be entitled to as employees. Furthermore, misclassified workers may not receive adequate protections under labor laws, including job security and protection against unfair dismissal. In other words, misclassification not only leads to financial losses but also impacts the overall well-being and job satisfaction of workers. Miller Shah recognizes these challenges and is dedicated to advocating for the rights of affected workers.
