Misclassification of Workers
Labor Ready has also come under fire for misclassifying workers (for example, as clerical rather than construction), which has resulted in the company paying less money (and in some states, nothing at all) into state workers' compensation funds than would otherwise be required, a great deal of this is due to the lack of training on office staff in dealing with proper classifications needed. It has also been alleged that this conduct is systematic and intentional. The dispute is ongoing, but in an attempt to be unbiased, this page presents evidence in support of and against Labor Ready's business practices.
