Kentucky congressman s joint employer bill garners business community support Steve Bittenbender, The Center Square © Provided by Washington Examiner The Kentucky Chamber of Commerce has come out in support of a bill filed by a local congressman that seeks to give clarity to small business owners regarding the “joint employer” rule. U.S. Rep. James Comer, a Republican from Tompkinsville, filed H.R. 3185, called the Save Local Business Act, last week. Comer said he filed the bill to push policies that encourage more workforce participation and loosen regulatory burdens for small businesses. “Our bill will protect the franchise business model, empower small businesses to prosper, and create fewer bureaucratic headaches for American job creators at a time when our economy desperately needs a lift,” Comer said in a statement.

Republicans introduce bill to counter PRO Act on joint employer standard

The Save Local Business Act would counter the joint employer provision of the Protecting the Right to Organize Act, or PRO Act, which is a top policy focus of the Biden administration, Democrats in Congress and union leaders. The PRO Act would codify the joint employer standard adopted by the National Labor Relations Board. The standard allows for two or more employers to be considered a joint employer of a worker if there is shared control of the worker’s essential terms and conditions of employment. ADVERTISEMENT The Republican bill would amend the National Labor Relations Act and the Fair Labor Standards Act to make clear that an employer may be considered a joint employer in relation to an employee only if such employer directly and immediately exercises control over the essential terms and conditions of employment.
