The order creates a Joint Enforcement Task Force that will work to strengthen enforcement. <A href="http://www.changetowin.org/for-the-media/press-releases-and-statements/tarpinian-misclassification-is-theft.html"><STRONG>Change to Win Executive Director Greg Tarpinian</STRONG> joined Governor Spitzer</A> at the announcement.</P><P>Employers misclassify their workers to avoid complying with workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and disability insurance laws, to skirt social security taxes and to get around paying for retirement and health benefits. Employees who are misclassified are not covered under minimum wage and prevailing wage laws, have no right to overtime or rest periods, and have no right to join a union.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/0310AD66-6F43-4CAB-8479-08BE5FA6E036/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
