Day and Temp Labor Agencies, And Their Clients, Face Legal Changes
By Eric F. Greenberg, Attorney-at-law
New legal requirements that are intended to protect day and temporary workers have toughened obligations on staffing agencies that supply such laborers in two states. That in turn is making life harder for companies who use their services, notably contract packaging and manufacturing businesses. Opponents worry that similar requirements could spread to other states.
Legislators are motivated by the sensible goal of protecting workers from abuses by some problematic staffing providers, but the new law imposes a range of legal obligations on all such providers, both good and bad.
