Nebraska LB941 aims to exclude certain franchisors from being considered employers of franchisees and their employees under labor laws.

Nebraska LB941 modifies labor law definitions to exclude certain franchisors from being considered employers of franchisees and their employees. A franchisor is not deemed an employer unless they exercise direct and immediate control over essential terms or conditions of employment, such as wage rates, hiring decisions, or employee discipline. The bill also specifies that franchisors are not liable for wages owed by franchisees unless they are considered employers under the act.
