RC Podcast: Final Rule on Independent Contractors and New Estimator Training

May 18, 2021

Additional H2B Visas, tax tips and the roofing industry’s continued supply shortage also discussed.

After months of speculation, the Biden administration issued a final decision eliminating the independent contractor status.

Trent Cotney, CEO of

Cotney Attorneys & Consultants, breaks down the impact to the roofing industry in his latest Legal Insights video withRC.

Cotney also discussed a new roofing-estimator training program the company launched to continue the professionalization of roofing contractors around the country.
“When it comes to estimating there is nothing that’s really specific out there to train people,” he explained. “By the time you’re through with this course, you’ll be at an intermediate level, and we’ll have advance courses available in June.”
