Joint Employer Liability

tfevergrn

Where might I find information regarding liability issues arising out of using staffing agency employees. I am aware of the ADA now covering staffing agency employees and both the agency and the client being liable.

I am seeking to educate managers of the risks involved and I am trying to determine if the same liabilities apply to government funded work programs that pay their workers who are volunteers for your business.

Thanks in advance for any guidance or direction.
