This video is the second of a two-part series where we provide an overview of the position of the Department of Labor (DoL) on independent contractor classifications. This series will presents a mock audit to give you a first hand perspective of the types of questions that a Department of Labor investigators ask with regard to the all too common issue of whether or not your workers are properly classified under the law. We will provide "red flags" that are often key to the final determination of Department of Labor, and how to address them.

The recent memo from the Defense Pricing Center (DPC) has created quite the stir around the current economic uncertainties in the government contractor community tied to inflation. The unfortunate reality is that for many years, economically speaking, the risk of inflation has been a steady 2-3% and so both contractors and the acquisition professionals on the other side have not had to realistically consider this factor in pricing/negotiating contracts. History has shown us that the threat is all too real and can cause significant hurdles for contractors to weather an inflationary period like we saw in the 80s, early nineties and as recently as 2009. The question of is it transitory or are we headed toward a recession is best left to our friend the magic 8-ball, but I do think there are a few things that all contractors should be aware of during this time.
