Under New York's Freelance Isn't Free Act (FIFA),
effective August 28, 2024, companies hiring
freelancers (1099s/independent contractors) will be required to
comply with the law's contract, payment, recordkeeping, and
anti-discrimination requirements. Given its broad scope and
applicability, individuals and businesses that contract with
freelancers should familiarize with the FIFA, and consult with
counsel, to ensure compliance and avoid facing significant civil
penalties.
Littler previously prepared an in-depth analysis and review of
the FIFA. The Insight can be accessed here.
