Art is Labor. In this webinar, you will learn about labor laws that apply to you as a creative worker in Chicago. The overview will provide information on Chicago’s labor laws including Minimum Wage, Paid Leave and Paid Sick and Safe Leave, Fair Workweek, and Wage Theft. Additionally, there will be an overview on the new Illinois Freelance Worker Protection Act (FWPA), which protects freelance workers and requires that written contracts be provided, timely payment of compensation, and access to recourse in the event of a violation of FWPA. Finally, you will learn about new resources and organizations that can support you as a creative worker. There will also be time to ask questions at a Q&A session.
