    About Worker Misclassification in PA

    Worker misclassification is when employers wrongly label employees as independent contractors to save money. This hurts workers by denying them rights, and is a problem in Pennsylvania that hurts both the economy and the unemployment compensation fund.

    The U.S. Department of Labor offers resources to understand this issue.
