New Community Opportunities Center Presents…A National Webinar
November 19, 2014; 3:00 – 4:30 p.m. Eastern
Please Note: This is not a webinar hosted by NCIL. Please direct all questions to Independent Living Research Utilization (ILRU).
On January 1, 2015, a new Department of Labor (DOL) rule will go into effect that will change the rules surrounding the companionship and live-in worker exemptions for domestic service workers. It is vital that CILs understand where they need to review their operations and approaches and where they need to take action to come into compliance with this new rule.
Please join ILRU November 19th to learn about the new Home Care Rule and changes affecting personal care services. This webinar, presented in collaboration with the National Resource Center for Participant-Directed Services, will 1) provide an overview of the DOL’s new Fair Labor Standards Act Home Care Rule and assess how the rule could impact CILs, particularly CILs that provide personal care services, 2) cover DOL Administrator’s Interpretations 2014-1 and 2014-2 on shared living and joint employment, and factors that affect joint employment in self direction and direct services, and 3) discuss the latest non-enforcement announcement and how it may impact CILs across the nation.
