Working Lunch: California delivery law could have joint-employer implications

In this week’s episode of the Working Lunch podcast, Align Public Strategies goes over multiple issues affecting restaurant operators. California is looking to require food handler certification for third-party delivery drivers and there are all kinds of implications, not the least of which is joint-employer liability.

And cities are increasingly getting into the anti-corporate game. The team looks at two cities that are attempting to influence who suppliers are. The Align crew also re-examines the minimum wage front and what a win looks like these days. The episode concludes with the legislative scorecard.
