Well, Isn't That Special!!!!

The New England Livery Association has come out with guidelines to help companies learn how to separate their Independent Operators from their actual employees, and to make sure these companies do not misclassify Independent Operators who are actually working as employees. This pamphlet was left for Chauffeurs to read at Logan Airport.

The real irony in all of this is the fact that a few of the chief players and board members of the New England Livery Association are the biggest violators of them all!!!

If you read the list of guidelines, they fail on every single issue.

There should be a class action lawsuit against these companies that fail to pay hourly wages, overtime, worker's compensation, state and federal taxes, and unemployment insurance.

One day soon, it might just happen.....

Stay tuned.
