Benchmark: Employee or Independent Contractor Classification Under the FLSA: Proposed Rule Training

Take this benchmark to assess how much you would benefit from taking the course on the Proposed Rule on Employee vs. Independent Contractor Classification under the FLSA.

This quick, pre-course check helps you gauge how well you grasp the rule’s intent, its likely operational impacts, and the trade-offs it creates (compliance vs. flexibility, consistency vs. nuance). It’s not an exam—it’s a decision aid to see where learning the course will pay off most.

By taking this benchmark, you will:

• Identify how clearly you understand the rule’s purpose and who it most affects.
• Spot gaps in your readiness to adjust policies, workflows, and documentation.
• Weigh key trade-offs: control vs. independence, efficiency vs. equity, and federal vs. state standards.
• Gauge potential cost and risk hotspots tied to reclassification.
• Check your preparedness to contribute high-quality public comments.

Use your results to prioritize the course modules you need most and to decide whether to take the full training now or after internal discussions.
