Harvey Gelb*
Many states have enacted laws that benefit workers designated
employees as distinguished from independent contractors. This Ar-
ticle deals primarily with legislation designed to define the term em-
ployee with sufficient clarity so as to avoid or thwart misclassification. It
focuses on California's recent and robust legislative efforts which,
though praiseworthy, still require some additional work.
