Save Local Business Act

April 25, 2023

Summary

The Save Local Business Act would amend the NLRA and FLSA to narrow joint-employer liability, requiring that each employer directly, actually, and immediately exercise significant control over essential terms and conditions of employment (hiring, firing, pay, scheduling, supervision, discipline) before being deemed a joint employer. For mortgage lenders, brokers, and servicers that rely on third-party loan officers, correspondents, or staffing firms, this would reduce the risk of being held jointly liable for labor violations based on indirect or reserved control. The bill is introduced but not enacted, so no compliance date applies.
