On April 30, the California Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling in Dynamex Operations West, Inc.  v. Superior Court of Los Angeles that made it harder for companies to misclassify workers as independent contractors. In California, the test of employment status has been developed through caselaw over several decades. Dynamex built upon the earlier Court-established test in Borello which itself evolved with the standards developed in Martinez and Ayala. The court has steadily adapted the test to capture a true employment relationship as business models, such as the use of staffing agencies and contractors, have changed.
