My club calls me an independent contractor. However, I called in to work today (that I wasn't coming in) and they said that before I can come back in I have to pay a $50 fine. Yes, it was in my original contract, that expired over 2 months ago. But my understanding is that if my club is able to fine me for missing a shift that that changes my classification to being an employee. Does anyone have any resources for actual legal information that I can show my employer in this regard? I do not want to pay this fine and feel it is very unjust and it is my understanding that is it illegal as well. Please help ASAP because I am scheduled tomorrow night and will have to pay the fee before I can come in.
Thanks!
