As franchise systems grow and evolve, so do the legal relationships between franchisors, franchisees and their employees. Recent developments in employment law have raised critical questions about liability, control and classification. These issues are reshaping how franchise agreements are interpreted and enforced, with significant implications for both compliance and risk management.

Join members of our Franchising and Workplace Law Groups as they explore key concerns such as joint employer liability and the potential reclassification of franchisees. Attendees will gain practical insights into how to structure franchise relationships to reduce exposure, maintain brand standards without overstepping legal boundaries and navigate the shifting regulatory landscape with confidence.

Topics include:

  • Current landscape of franchise law as it pertains to the workforce 
  • Legal implications of joint employer liability between franchisors and franchisees
  • Structuring franchise relationships to reduce employment law exposure
  • Maintaining brand standards without triggering employment-related obligations
