title: Employment issues in the health care industry.
abstract: Employers and home health care agencies are faced with a plethora of legal issues ranging from the proper classification of employees to accurately compensating employees for preparation and travel time spent seeing clients. Perhaps no area of employment law wreaks greater havoc for employers and the home health care industry than issues raised under federal and state wage and hour laws, which are of paramount importance and can have dramatic consequences if not properly followed.
