Requires that, for any Federal-law determination of whether a person is an employee, decisionmakers must ignore certain workplace benefits and contributions. Specifically, determinations may not consider benefits that a worker can keep after they stop working, benefits that are the same as those given to full‑time employees, employer or worker contributions toward those benefits, or any combination of those items.
The change narrows the set of factors federal agencies, courts, and other decisionmakers may use when deciding employee status, shifting attention away from benefit offerings and contributions and toward other indicia of employment under the applicable law.
