For the last three years, the Home Care industry has been the most targeted industry for wage class actions and single plaintiff lawsuits. Why? Because regulations are relatively new, which means they are low-hanging fruit for attorneys as home care agencies learn how to comply. These lawsuits are also popular because the industry is profitable – aging at home is the trend and money is being invested here.So how can your agency protect itself and prevent these lawsuits? Angelo Spinola, attorney and shareholder at Littler Mendelson, joins Kristi Harris, CellTrak’s vice president of customer success, to provide tips on how to reduce risk of litigation by avoiding common mistakes. Listen in to learn which kinds of agencies are most at risk, which states have the highest rate of litigation, and typical pitfalls agencies are making – and how to avoid them.
