Course description:

Are you concerned or confused by the legal and ethical issues surrounding certain workplace practices such as being giving a 1099 for a temping job, not getting paid for working interviews, or the lack of lunch breaks? Have you heard about the new mandatory time off law? You are not alone. Laws can be difficult to understand, and misinformation is plentiful and can lead to workplace stress and burnout. Certain laws such as being classified as an independent contractor vs an employee can have legal implications for the practice. This course will help you understand the labor laws that impact your workplace and the dental office workplace.
