When You're on the Hook: Subcontractors, Safety, and Liability
Wednesday, July 16, 2025 (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM) (PDT)
Description
When you hire subcontractors or manage employees on the jobsite, there’s a lot at stake — and sometimes, liability ends up where you least expect it. This awareness class breaks down three key areas every employer should be aware of:
- Hiring Subcontractors & the 7-Part Test – How workers’ comp liability can shift based on your working relationship.
- Stute Liability – When a general contractor can be cited for safety violations caused by a subcontractor.
- Unpreventable Employee Misconduct (UEM) – When trained employees ignore safety rules and the employer is still held responsible. Whether you're a business owner, contractor, or safety lead, this session will help you better understand your potential exposure and how to reduce risk — without giving legal advice. Knowledge is your best protection.
