Contractor work arrangements are popular. According to the US Government Accountability Office, about one-third of all businesses and almost 90% of Fortune 500 companies use independent contractors in some capacity. Hiring contractors can be a particularly attractive option for early-stage businesses because it allows them to leverage specialized skill sets while building their internal teams.
But contractors are very different from employees, and the two mustn’t be conflated—or hefty penalties can apply. While contractors are self-employed individuals or even incorporated business entities, employees are typically economically dependent on their employers and so are entitled to certain rights and protections under the law. For this reason, misclassifying an employee as an independent contractor is a compliance violation: It denies a worker rights to which they are otherwise entitled.
Every state has different compliance requirements for business owners. These requirements can impact wages, breaks, benefits, sick time, and workplace accommodations. Keeping track of them all can be highly involved, particularly for multi-state employers.
The California Industrial Welfare Commission (IWC) Wage Orders are a set of rules that regulate wages, hours, and working conditions across various industries and occupations in the state of California.
New York’s labor laws have changed significantly in 2025, introducing updates that affect both employers and employees across the state. These changes reflect ongoing efforts to enhance worker protections while balancing business needs in a dynamic economy. New York employers must comply with these updated regulations to avoid penalties and ensure proper treatment of their workforce.
The 2025 labor law updates include changes to minimum wage requirements, expanded paid leave provisions, and new workplace safety regulations. The Clean Slate Act implementation also transforms how past criminal records impact employment opportunities throughout New York State. These modifications aim to create more equitable workplaces while addressing modern employment challenges.
