About This Course

Media and entertainment companies, which contract with a full-range of employee classifications, are at a particularly high risk for employment law infractions. Actors and independent contractors, interns, volunteers, part-time workers and the various unions involved can open the door to innumerable violations incurring both financial and professional consequences. This CLE course, presented by Frankfurt, Kurnit Klein & Selz, will explain the recent trends and potential pitfalls that media and entertainment companies must avoid. The course will review how to properly classify employees of all classifications, how to distinguish between independent contractors, interns and volunteers, and the ramifications of misclassifying exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act. The course will also review exceptions to the rules, how to grant equity to new partners, avoiding tax violations and responding to audits.
