Misclassifying someone as exempt who really is non-exempt can prove just as disastrous, if not more so, than misclassifying someone who is an employee as an independent contractor.  In this Helpcast, Helene Wasserman of Ford & Harrison explains how to determine whether an employee is exempt from overtime or nonexempt, and she explains why it is important to make the right decision.

Wage and hour law is entirely based on the way and amount of money you pay your employees, and what exactly you are paying for.  Misclassifying someone as an independent contractor, when that person is truly an employee, can prove very costly to the entity making the erroneous classification decision. In this first of a series of three Helpcasts devoted to wage and hour basics, Helene Wasserman of Ford & Harrison will take listeners through the analysis of determining whether the person being paid to perform services is an employee or an independent contractor.  Additionally, Helene will explain the ramifications of misclassifying an employee as an independent contractor.

This is an excerpt from the BBC special by Jon Ronson. The crew came to interview me as well as many others. This is just my part in the production. Mr. Ronson also wrote a book that Im in, The Men Who Stare at Goats, and Im glad my parents are dead. The book also got us into the May 2005 issue of Playboy Magazine; again, Im glad my parents are dead. I thought that my viewers would enjoy seeing my contribution to this colorful BBC 3 hour series.

Download audio file (kim_cameron_podcast.mp3) Episode 48 of the PodLeaders show - 42 mins 15 secs My guest on the show this week is Kim Cameron. Kim is Microsoft s Identity Chief and as such is responsible for developing CardSpace - Microsoft s successor to the much reviled Passport. Kim elucidated the Seven Laws of Identity and is developing CardSpace to conform to those laws. If he manages this, he will have changed fundamentally how Microsoft deals with people. Kim is also responsible for Microsoft recently releasing 35 pieces of IP and promising to never charge for them. Here are the questions I asked Kim and the times I asked them: Kim, I introduced you as Microsoft s Identity Chief, what is your official title in Microsoft? - 0:35 What does the Chief Architect of Identity do in Microsoft? - 01:02 Why is it necessary to have identity products in software? - 01:29 How do I know who I am dealing with on the internet? How is that problem being solved? - 03:56 And you as Microsoft s Identity Architect are coming up with a way to resolve this called CardSpace - 07:08 You were saying CardSpace is to be platform independent, I run a Mac, will it run on the Mac? - 15:26 You mentioned a couple of companies, are the offerings from these companies going to interoperate or are we going to have another version of the VHS/BetaMax wars? - 17:45 Audience questions Rob Burke Perhaps more than any of the other Vista-era technologies, in order to really catch on, CardSpace requires broad cross-platform adoption. Kim personally is doing a lot to showcase the use of CardSpace’s open standards. What does the broader effort to engage with other platforms and communities look like, and how is CardSpace being received? - 21:10 CardSpace uses an intuitive wallet-and-credit-card metaphor. One of the features of a wallet is that it’s portable – I several pieces of identity with me at all times. I tend to move between computers a lot. What provisions are there in CardSpace for helping me keep mobile (in a secure way)? - 25:07 What happens if your laptop containing your InfoCards gets lost and/or stolen? - 28:00 What’s cooking on the identity managemnt front at MSFT? We’ve been hearing about this on and off for a while - we need progress if we’re not to be weighed down byt having to remember so many usernames and passwords for the servics we consume. - 30:35 Will there be a lot of re-engineering of web apps required to roll out these technologies? - 34:03 And finally you mentioned that this is the first version what can we expect in the next versions and when will they be released? - 39:58 Download the entire interview here (19.3mb mp3) No Tags
