What does CLARIFICATION OF JOINT EMPLOYMENT. of HR 4366 do?

This section amends the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) to clarify the definition of 'joint employer'. Under the NLRA, an employer may be considered a joint employer only if it directly, actually, and immediately exercises significant control over the essential terms and conditions of employment. The FLSA adopts the joint employer criteria from the amended NLRA section 2(2)(B), but applies the FLSA's definitions of 'employee' and 'employer'.
