ShiftPixy Creates New GIG Economy Model Designed To Avoid Lawsuits; Solves the Independent Contractor Problem!

 

Company's Innovative Solution Has ShiftPixy Treating Their Workers As Full-Time Employees But They Remain as if they were still Independent Contractors To ShiftPixy's Clients.

 

IRVINE, CA – __/__/2016 –

 

ShiftPixy, Inc. ("ShiftPixyÒ or the "Company") a disruptive Next Gen GIG Economy provider of unique insurance products, regulatory compliance services, proprietary human administration tools and variable labor force provider, that plans to enable unemployed, under-employed or part-time and/or full-time individuals to apply for variable shift work from businesses in their local market, today announced that, it has created a new hybrid type worker classification status, designed to avoid the pitfalls inherent in trying to classify shift workers as independent contractors in the traditional GIG Economy model… pitfalls which can lead to crippling litigation.

 

Boston-based attorney Shannon Liss-Riordan, of Lichten & Liss-Riordan, (who) is representing plaintiffs in… cases against Grubhub (NYSE: GRUB)… recently settled a case with GIG Economy giant Uber for up to $100 million over alleged worker misclassification. (emphasis provided).
http://www.chicagotribune.com/bluesky/originals/ct-grubhub-lawsuit-worker-misclassification-bsi-20160629-story.html

 

It is no secret that perhaps the majority of the major players in the GIG Economy (Uber, Lyft, Instacart, Postmates, Etc…) have been sued or threatened with litigation… or are rightfully worried about the increasing possibility of litigation that is inherent in the traditional employee as independent contractor classification in the GIG model.

(See "Which 'Gig Economy' Companies are Most Afraid of a Misclassification Lawsuit?")
http://blogs.uoregon.edu/liztippett/2016/04/26/gig-economy/ )

 

Many fear that loss of the gig workforce structure, either by a wave of class-action lawsuits, intervention by regulators, or through the collective action of disgruntled workers, and the gig economy as it now exists may be in serious jeopardy.

Politicians are considering new legislation or regulations (see Hillary Clinton & Elizabeth Warren quotes below) and savvy litigation attorneys are pursuing (and winning) judgments that could put many traditional model GIG Economy companies out of business.

 

Hillary Clinton said last summer that GIG Economy companies like Uber and AirBnB… "rais[ed] hard questions about workplace protections...."
http://thehill.com/policy/technology/248639-uber-exec-says-clinton-will-embrace-gig-economy

 

"Sen. Elizabeth Warren… [has signaled that]… it may be time to overhaul regulations for companies that avoid paying benefits by classifying their workers as contractors." Warren said, "I think there is evidence that increasingly employers use independent contractors not in ways that were originally intended… and I think that's a real problem,".

And the headlines echo with dire forecasts for the traditional GIG Economy:

Why the Next Uber Wannabe Is Already Dead

The most valuable startups in America rely on independent contracts. Antiquated labor laws say they may be employees. The on-demand economy hangs in the balance.
http://www.inc.com/magazine/201511/jeff-bercovici/the-1099-bind.html

 

Good riddance, gig economy: Uber, Ayn Rand and the awesome collapse of Silicon Valley's dream of destroying your job.

http://www.salon.com/2016/03/27/good_riddance_gig_economy_uber_ayn_rand_and_the_awesome_collapse_of_silicon_valleys_dream_of_destroying_your_job/

 

Whether a company wins or loses a lawsuit… it still has burdened the company with lost time and revenues… not to mention the legal fees and significant size of potential damage awards.

 

Why all the litigation and talk of new legislation?

 

It's because the basic framework of the traditional GIG Economy model is flawed.

 

These GIG Economy companies regularly classify the people working for them as "independent contractors" rather than "employees" for jobs (gigs). The companies can pay much less for services and in regulatory requirements if their workers are classified as independent contractors. Under state and federal employment laws, workers classified as employees are much more expensive for these companies.

Senator Elizabeth Warren recently said, "Long before anyone ever wrote an article about the 'gig economy,' corporations had discovered the higher profits they could wring out of an on-demand workforce made up of independent contractors".
https://www.thenation.com/article/elizabeth-warren-takes-on-the-gig-economy/

 

So the common thread of the problem in the lawsuits is that although a company may internally classify workers as independent contractors, under the same federal and state laws mentioned above… they are, in reality, employees… and THAT is the source of the many lawsuits.

 

At issue is the question of whether workers for companies like Uber are independent contractors, as the firms claim. Contractors don't get the same benefits and protections as employees. Advocates say that the companies have significant control over their workers — the measure of whether someone is an independent contractor or not. The companies argue that workers have flexibility over the work they do, including controlling their own hours and being able to work for competing companies at the same time.
http://thehill.com/policy/technology/248639-uber-exec-says-clinton-will-embrace-gig-economy

 

"They call them independent contractors but they set their pay, they screen them, they sometimes train them, they evaluate them, they discipline them, and all of those characteristics look an awful lot like an employer-employee relationship," said Rebecca Smith, deputy director of the National Employment Law Project.
http://thehill.com/policy/transportation/243840-ubers-model-under-fire-from-washington

 

"… it's safe to say that there are advantages to being an employee (security, safety laws, minimum wage, benefits) and that there are also advantages to being an independent contractor (freedom, independence). Similarly, there are advantages to hiring employees (quality control, dependable workers) and hiring contract workers (cheaper, don't need to guarantee work). Where platforms get into legally dubious territory is when they try to claim the advantages of both systems at the same time." (The Gig Economy Won't Last Because It's Being Sued To Death.)

http://www.fastcompany.com/3042248/the-gig-economy-wont-last-because-its-being-sued-to-death

 

ShiftPixy's evolution of the classic GIG model totally eliminates this key weakness in the standard model of treating workers as independent contractors.

 

ShiftPixy has embraced the next Gen structure for the GIG economy by making their workers (ShiftPixy calls them "Shifters") employees of ShiftPixy and lending them out to third party employers in need of additional workers.

 

The employers get the benefit of having a workforce without the compliance and regulatory burdens that normally accompany their hiring of a regular workforce, particularly ones that exist in industries with many part-time/shift workers such as the restaurant and hospitality industries, ShiftPixy's initial target market. ShiftPixy and NOT the operating business is the entity that employs these Shifters and handles ACA and other administrative and regulatory compliance matters that accompany the hiring of employees. ShiftPixy totally removes that burden from its operating business clients.

Scott W. Absher, CEO of ShiftPixy said: "The ShiftPixy solution allows employers to avoid mandated regulatory costs and related burdens… it saves them both time and money… which is designed to give them a competitive edge. It also gives the misclassified independent contractor workers the opportunity to receive "full time" wages and healthcare coverage… to be treated as employees… because they ARE employees… they are ShiftPixy employees! The ShiftPixy Next Gen model is a "win-win" for the GIG Economy companies and workers alike. We believe the natural evolution from the classic model of GIG workers being problematically classified as independent contractors, is our best of both worlds model… They are our employees AND also remain working as if they were still independent contractors to ShiftPixy clients.

 

About ShiftPixy, Inc.

 

ShiftPixy was formed to take advantage of weaknesses in compulsory insurance markets and new compliance requirements for U.S. businesses where statutory requirements for business owners collide with extremely limited access to the required insurance coverage, particularly health care insurance coverage, and related regulatory compliance issues. ShiftPixy management has leveraged over 20 years of experience in developing and marketing alternative risk programs to address unique business insurance needs into the delivery of a unique and what we believe to be a highly desirable suite of services to merge coverage access with operational compliance and financial support.

 

ShiftPixy has developed proprietary technology and client engagement processes that enable the Company create high value on both the employer and the employee sides of the U.S. shift work chasm.

 

When launched in September, the ShiftPixy mobile app will allow available and qualified shift workers to connect with immediately available shifts from participating ShiftPixy Provider Clients through a simple mobile application. Shift workers or "Shifters" can find shift opportunities within their skill set and geographic range and pick up available shifts when they need the work. ShiftPixy processes the entire workflow on the provider side from offering open shifts, approving a Shifter based on their rich profile, to processing all of the payroll, insurance and regulatory demands for each shift hour worked.

 

The ShiftPixy Shifter platform secures and monetizes individuals seeking shift work based on need and availability matched to their specific skills and within their geographic range on a monthly fee basis for access.

IRVINE, CA – __/__/2016 –

 

ShiftPixy, Inc. ("ShiftPixyÒ or the "Company") a disruptive Next Gen GIG Economy provider of unique insurance products, regulatory compliance services, proprietary human administration tools and variable labor force provider, announced that its initial roll-out of its business model in Southern California. Building upon this success, the Company plans to release a new application in early September 2016, that will enable unemployed, under-employed or part-time and/or full-time individuals initially in the nation's restaurant and hospitality industry workforce, and ultimately in all business' workforce, to apply for variable shift work from businesses in their local market. Appropriately, this proprietary app is planned for release on Labor Day 2016.

 

The Company saw that the Affordable Care Act (ACA), while solving problems also inadvertently opened up a whole new market for labor services… and the Company also saw that the shortcomings in the much hyped new class of the service industry, the "GIG Economy," was not the way to tap into this vast new market.

 

The GIG Economy is a service industry where workers are expected to operate like mini-businesses. The influence of these kinds of service industry companies is growing. According to an analysis by Greylock Partners, the value of transactions over platforms such as car services Lyft and Uber, grocery delivery service Instacart and courier service Postmates could grow as large as $10 billion this year."

Scott W. Absher, ShiftPixy Founder & CEO said: "As technology has advanced over the past decade, new internet-based employment platforms emerged which are often referred to collectively as the "Gig Economy." Many of these platforms, such as Uber (transportation) and Instacart (grocery delivery) regularly engage "contract workers" rather than "employees" for jobs (gigs). Among other reasons, his classification allows companies Uber to operate with 20% to 30% less in labor costs than competition having employees, leading to eye-popping numbers like Uber's $40 billion valuation or Instacart's latest $220 million round of funding. Many fear that loss of the gig workforce structure, either by a wave of class-action lawsuits, intervention by regulators, or through the collective action of disgruntled workers, and the gig economy may be in serious jeopardy.

ShiftPixy's evolution of the classic GIG model, totally eliminates this key weakness in the standard model of treating workers as independent contractors.

 

ShiftPixy has embraced the next Gen structure for the GIG economy by making their workers (ShiftPixy calls them "Shifters") employees of ShiftPixy and lending them out to third party employers in need of additional workers.

 

The employers get the benefit of having a workforce without the compliance and regulatory burdens that normally accompany their hiring of a regular workforce, particularly ones that exist in industries with many part-time/shift workers such as the restaurant and hospitality industries, ShiftPixy's initial target market. ShiftPixy and NOT the operating business is the entity that employs these Shifters and handles ACA and other administrative and regulatory compliance matters that accompany the hiring of employees. ShiftPixy totally removes that burden from its operating business clients.

 

The need for the services the Company offers is an unintended result of and has been amplified by the compliance burdens placed upon employers of GIG Economy workers under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). ShiftPixy recognized this need early on and saw it as an opportunity.

 

As shown by the studies below, the ACA's new compulsory insurance requirements for US business owners has caused companies to reduce the number of hours worked by employees as their default solution. However, that left them with a need for additional workers to fill the void.

 

As a result, employers require a greater number of employees who are each working fewer hours than before… and shift workers now need more opportunities to work for different companies in order to maintain their income level.

 

Scott W. Absher added: "The Affordable Care Act is affecting personnel decisions. A survey of more than 600 small business owners by the Society for Human Resource Management found that 20% of companies surveyed reported they have cut the number of workers they employ. Employers are not required to offer coverage for employees who work less than 30 hours per week. A related study found that 12% of employers nationwide plan to reduce workers' hours as a result of ACA1."

One direct casualty of ACA has been the shift worker, with full time employment with one employer becoming a thing of the past as employers dropped hours and shifts to bring their business into ACA compliance by having less than 50 full time employees. Full time employees not only include traditional full time workers working more than 30 hours per week but also requires employers to make complex calculations involving all part time workers to make sure they don't have part time workers constituting equivalent full time employees.

 

"There are approximately 26 million part time workers in the United States. Of these,

 

more than 6 million people are classified as "involuntary part-time workers," meaning that they would have preferred full-time employment, but were working part time because their hours had been cut back or because they were unable to find a full-time job2.

2 http://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/empsit_08072015.pdf

 

On the other side of the table, due to ACA, in order not to be subject to ACA insurance mandates job providers now had to have more people working fewer hours. The Company has seen that race to meet the new demands and covering new gaps are stressing small business as never before in the US. The new demands have made delivery and cash flows challenging for small employers who provide most of the US employment.

 

Scott W. Absher, Co-Founder & CEO added: "We have seen that the race to meet the new demands and covering new regulatory requirement gaps are stressing small business as never before. The new demands have made compliance, staffing, and cash flows more challenging for small employers who provide most of the US employment. To address these widespread pain points, ShiftPixy has established a unique and what we believe are a highly desirable suite of services that merge insurance coverage access, operational, compliance and financial support, along with intermediation of shift workers and available shifts at participating businesses.

 

One valuable aspect of ShiftPixy's services to employers is access to a large pool of qualified shift workers that are part of the Company's proprietary ecosystem. Many of these shifters will come into the ecosystem through their current employers who become ShiftPixy clients thus making ShiftPixy the employer of record for their workers. The Company intends to add to the ShiftPixy ecosystem others seeking employment (but not working for ShiftPixy employers) from Company marketing initiatives focused on continuously expanding the pool of available shift workers, initially from the new mobile app the Company will offer in September 2016. These activities will give employers a greater incentive to become ShiftPixy clients by making available to them a greater number of qualified, local shift workers to fill available shifts through marketing to potential shifters outside the ecosystem will occur simultaneously with onboarding additional shifters via new employer enrollment with ShiftPixy.

 

ShiftPixy will initially target the restaurant and hotel industries, a market comprised of 13 million workers. Management has also identified several additional markets such as New York, Chicago, Dallas and Orlando where ShiftPixy may in the future target for marketing through what it will promote as bringing the same high value type services to these industries as it is now bringing to the restaurant and hospitality industries.

The ShiftPixy Next Gen model for the GIG Economy which we believe the natural evolution from the classic model of GIG workers being problematically classified as independent contractors to their becoming full-time employees ShiftPixy that provides these workers to ShiftPixy clients, their former employers.

 

ShiftPixy is already generating significant revenue, and has the realistic potential to achieve what few startups can in a short period of time – generate significant annual revenues.

 

Asher added: "Management has leveraged its expertise and long standing market alliances within the property and casualty producer community to assemble a large backlog of potential Provider Clients for what we believe to be the Company's unique platform and programs. ShiftPixy now is in the position of being able to select rather than inviting Provider Clients into its proprietary program which we believe will enable ShiftPixy to grow more rapidly and select clients that may add more profitably to our operations."

 

The Company stated that its proprietary mobile shifter app will be released on Labor Day 2016.

 

Absher added: "We call a prospective employee a "Shifter." We have designed our ShiftPixy mobile app to be the primary entrance into the ShiftPixy ecosystem for a Shifter who was not an employee of an company that became a ShiftPixy client. The user experience on this app is being designed to provide a simple mobile access and opportunity management tool for Shifters to select and manage their shift opportunities. ShiftPixy intends to collect nominal monthly user fees from Shifter participation in the ShiftPixy ecosystem via this app. The ShiftPixy app will also serve as a gateway for Shifters to access perks and benefits an employee of a large company would enjoy. These perks may include health dental and vision coverages, 401(k) or IRA access, and a variety of discounts."

 

Media expenditures are planned to support the launch of the mobile Shifter access application. Additionally, the Company's electronic marketing plan focuses on generating message buzz around the ACA enforcement actions we expect in 2016 will show up in the form of penalties in 2016 for the unprepared employers of 2015. These penalties are steep, potentially in the hundreds of thousands of dollars or more and we expect will gain a great deal of national attention. When this happens, the Company intends to produce a significant volume of publicity around the ShiftPixy compliance solution within the trade and financial media to attempt to attract additional clients.

 

Our planned B2B digital message program will track hot subject matter surrounding ACA enforcement and compliance and produce additional content we will use to elevate ShiftPixy as an innovative employer solution to these ACA problems

 

The Company also reported that it has filed with the SEC an Offering Circular on Form 1-A under new Regulation A+. This new SEC regulation allows not only just wealthy accredited or institutional investors but also non-accredited investors… everyday people… the opportunity to invest in A+ IPO's.

ShiftPixy management has leveraged over 20 years of experience in developing and marketing alternative risk programs to address unique business insurance needs into the delivery of a unique and what we believe to be a highly desirable suite of services to merge coverage access with operational compliance and financial support.

 

ShiftPixy's management team discovered that recent new demands due to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) were forcing a new compliance layer into the marketplace for our existing and potential Provider Clients which we were forced to aid in addressing for them. Due to the compliance and risk areas of expertise that were core to our client delivery, mastery of an effective solution such as the one we have developed has become essential.

 

In the work to master and incorporate a means to effectively address the new ACA compliance demands as part of our core service platform we observed that shift work was now very vulnerable. The direct casualty of ACA was the shift worker who is now seeing full time employment with one employer becoming a thing of the past as small employers dropped hours and shifts to bring their business into ACA compliance. The shift worker has now become part of the under-employed and forgotten millions in the US economy.

 

One the other side of the ACA impact were the job providers who now had to have more people working fewer hours. The race to meet the new demands and covering new gaps are stressing small business as never before in the US. The new demands have made delivery and cash flows challenging for small employers who provide most of the US employment. CITATION?

 

ShiftPixy management realized that they were in the prefect position to intermediate a better solution to meet the needs on both the provider and shift worker sides of the new Next Gen labor reality in the US. ShiftPixy has developed proprietary technology and client engagement processes that enable the Company create high value on both the employer and the employee sides of the U.S. shift work chasm.

 

When launched in September, the ShiftPixy mobile app allows available and qualified shift workers to connect with immediately available shifts from participating ShiftPixy Provider Clients through a simple mobile application. Shift workers or "Shifters" can find shift opportunities within their skill set and geographic range and pick up available shifts when they need the work. ShiftPixy processes the entire workflow on the provider side from offering open shifts, approving a Shifter based on their rich profile, to processing all of the payroll, insurance and regulatory demands for each shift hour worked.

 

The ShiftPixy provider platform secures and monetizes long-term Provider Client relationships under annual agreements which are not passive or transactional but active and vital to our client's success. Our product suite is designed to meet critical operational and financial needs and are specifically focused to exploit what we see as the current market weakness, with our goal of placing our value proposition very high with the Provider Clients we target. The ShiftPixy Shifter platform secures and monetizes individuals seeking shift work based on need and availability matched to their specific skills and within their geographic range on a monthly fee basis for access.

ShiftPixy management has leveraged not only its expertise but also its long-standing market alliances within the property and casualty producer community to assemble a very large backlog of Provider Clients anxious for the planned launch of our unique platform and programs. The Company has the unique position of allowing rather than inviting Provider Clients into its proprietary program which allows ShiftPixy to grow rapidly and select Provider Clients profitably.

 

Our goal for our small business Provider Client business owners is to liberate them to do what they do best, provide high quality service to their customers. Our dedication and mastery of the "dailies" for our Provider Clients and ability to guide through small course corrections keep our Provider Clients on a path free of surprises or risks from failure to attend to and cure small issues before they take root and grow to expensive obstacles to the growth of the business. The resultant freedom our Provider Clients find now allows them to dedicate their focus to the growth of their business. These are truly liberating tools for small business owners on many significant business and personal levels.

 

ShiftPixy's primary Client Provider service engagement is contractual and allows Client Providers coverage access, operational and processing bandwidth from which we extract regular residual fee income monthly. Management is developing other high value touch points designed to strengthen and further monetize these Provider client engagements. Shifter user engagements will be monetized by charging for the services but keep the charges at low levels intended to drive mobile app utilization and community growth through not only shift access and opportunity management but personal access to perks an employee of a large corporation might enjoy due to the ShiftPixy economy of scale.

ShiftPixy Introduction Video

7.8.16

 

SCOTT ABSHER

 

ShiftPixy is an idea that evolved from conversation about some of the changes in the employee/employer landscape. And we built an eco-system now that better connects employees to opportunities and employers to available shift workers.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOLMES

 

ShiftPixy is unique in a way that it offers a work-force management solution that gives employers on-demand employees at any time. Being part of a gig-economy, being a Next Generation gig economy company that is compliant, not only gives the employer compliance, but also gives the worker, employer rights, or employer protection.

 

 

 

SCOTT ABSHER

 

A couple years ago, our co-founder, Steve and I, were talking about our experience in the employer-service industry. Both of us have been in that space for over 20 years, assisting small businesses in their employee/ employer relationship and the management of that. And, we talked about some of the trends, some of the things that were evolving and one of those was along the lines of the Affordable Care Act and its impact on small business.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOLMES

 

So, the regulatory environment has changed drastically over the last couple of years and has especially hit transitional work forces, like restaurants and hotels, like no one else. Not only do they have to navigate Affordable Care Act, having to keep their employees under a 29 hour limit in order to keep a lid on their expenses, but they also have to measure employees with mandatory pay time off laws and now the increase to minimum wage that really puts pressure on them.

 

 

 

SCOTT ABSHER

 

This new layer of compliance was put on them and their knee-jerk reaction was to, to well, forget it, we'll just put everyone to 29 hours. Which, tactically, that's great, but it leaves you with a problem – you've got to find more people that are able to work 29 hours.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOMES

 

If you're going to move everyone to part-time, or most of your staff to part-time, you're going to have to have a lot more part-time employees. And so, giving them access to a contingent work force was really the birth of ShiftPixy.

 

 
25
 

 

SCOTT ABSHER

 

When we looked at our opportunity and we saw a very clear path to this market need, that it was exhilarating. We thought and were motivated that we had to do this. We had to do this. And it wasn't whether or not somebody else was going to do it or not, but we saw that this was something that was so needed – so necessary – and did so much good for so many people; we had an obligation to deliver on this.

One of the unique aspects of ShiftPixy is the recruiting aspect. The ability to automate the whole recruiting cycle. The traditional way that most restaurants or hotels go about it is to place an ad. They place an ad, they bring in multiple candidates, they go through their résumés, they may call their references and if they like them, they'll bring them in, fill out all the employee paperwork that goes along with it and put them to work. With ShiftPixy, the process is simple. They simply broadcast a shift, they confirm the shifter, they bring them in and they put them to work.

What we're doing is, we've spent a lot of time since inception loading in our job providers, getting them seeded in the system now. When we turn the app on on Labor Day, now they'll be able to start taking and elevating their shift opportunities and that's what I think excites us. That we're offering something new that the marketplace has not seen; they've not imagined and we get to be the pioneers, the ones offering this new platform, this new eco-system.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOLMES

 

Well I think with the regulatory environment that exists, I think it's very important that transitional workforces, like restaurants and hotels, not only get to rein in all of their expenses, but have the ability to access labor. With more and more people working part-time jobs and mobile technology ingrained in today's society, the ability to access a contingent workforce has never been greater than it is now.

Any investor looking at the gig economy as an opportunity – the market is huge, it's growing vastly. We're way beyond antidotal, these are hard numbers that are out there about how big this economy is. But when you look at it, you look at companies like Über and that's out of reach for the small investor. What ShiftPixy's done is set up an investment structure under Reg A Plus with the Securities Exchange Commission. Our sponsor is W.R. Hambrick, out of San Francisco; they're our investment banker. ShiftPixy's investment opportunity was set up to be a very democratized participation. This is not "the big guy" type of investment. This is set up for individual, small investors. We're focusing right now on the restaurant and hospitality vertical. Again, because they've made some decisions, as an industry, because of the Affordable Care Act, to push people to 29 hours in order to comply. And, when we look at the larger marketplace, we see a lot of vertical markets, outside of just the restaurant and hospitality trades. We see the transportation industry, we see the service industry, we're looking at the healthcare industry. And these are all industries that are driven by work that's delivered one shift at a time. ShiftPixy has the opportunity to step in and deliver compliance ensurity for both parties, one shift at a time.

ShiftPixy is a revolution, I think, in the way employers and employees connect.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOLMES

 

It offers a work-force management solution that gives employers on-demand employees at any time. Being a Next Generation gig economy company that is compliant, not only gives the employer compliance, but also gives the worker, employer rights, or employer protection.

 

 

 

SCOTT ABSHER

 

We talked about some of the trends, some of the things that were evolving and one of those was along the lines of the Affordable Care Act and its impact on small business.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOLMES

 

So, the regulatory environment has changed drastically over the last couple of years and has especially hit transitional work forces, like restaurants and hotels. Not only do they have to navigate Affordable Care Act, to having to keep their employees under a 29 hour limit in order to keep a lid on their expenses, but they also have to measure employees with mandatory pay time off laws and now the increase to minimum wage that really puts pressure on them.

 

 

 

SCOTT ABSHER

 

This new layer of compliance was put on them and their knee-jerk reaction was to, well, forget it, we'll just put everyone to 29 hours. Which, tactically, that's great, but it leaves you with a problem – you've got to find more people that are able to work 29 hours.

 

 

 

J. STEPHEN HOMES

 

If you're going to move everyone to part-time, or most of your staff to part-time, you're going to have to have a lot more part-time employees. And so, giving them access to a contingent work force was really the birth of ShiftPixy. One of the unique aspects of ShiftPixy is the recruiting aspect. The ability to automate the whole recruiting cycle. The traditional way that most restaurants or hotels go about it is to place an ad. They place an ad, they bring in multiple candidates, they go through their résumés, they may call their references and if they like them, they'll bring them in, fill out all the employee paperwork that goes along with it and put them to work. With ShiftPixy, the process is simple. They simply broadcast a shift, they confirm the shifter, they bring them in and they put them to work.

ShiftPixy Creates Innovative Solution To Employer/Employee Problems Created By Affordable Care Act (ACA); Revolutionizes "GIG Economy" Structure By Creating Its Own Proprietary Workforce To Lend Out To Third Party Employers.

 

The ShiftPixy Solution Allows Employers Who Choose To Reduce Employee Work Hours As Their Default Option To Avoid Mandated Regulatory Costs And Related Burdens; Gives Them The Ability To Maintain Workforce Levels While Providing Employees Opportunity To Receive "Full Time" Wages And Healthcare Coverage.

 

ShiftPixy Management explains why they believe that the Company has the potential to significantly increase revenues in the future.

 

ShiftPixy Has Filed A Regulation A+ Offering Circular with the SEC; Will Use A New SEC Regulatory Framework That Allows Non-Accredited Investors The Opportunity To Invest in SEC Registered A+ IPO Offerings.

 

IRVINE, CA – __/__/2016 –

 

ShiftPixy, Inc. ("ShiftPixyÒ or the "Company") a disruptive Next Gen GIG Economy provider of unique insurance products, regulatory compliance services, proprietary human administration tools and variable labor force provider, announced that its initial roll-out of its business model in Southern California. Building upon this success, the Company plans to release a new application in early September 2016, that will enable unemployed, under-employed or part-time and/or full-time individuals initially in the nation's restaurant and hospitality industry workforce, and ultimately in all business' workforce, to apply for variable shift work from businesses in their local market. Appropriately, this proprietary app is planned for release on Labor Day 2016.

 

The Company saw that the Affordable Care Act (ACA), while solving problems also inadvertently opened up a whole new market for labor services… and the Company also saw that the shortcomings in the much hyped new class of the service industry, the "GIG Economy," was not the way to tap into this vast new market.

 

The GIG Economy is a service industry where workers are expected to operate like mini-businesses. The influence of these kinds of service industry companies is growing. According to an analysis by Greylock Partners, the value of transactions over platforms such as car services Lyft and Uber, grocery delivery service Instacart and courier service Postmates could grow as large as $10 billion this year."

Scott W. Absher, ShiftPixy Founder & CEO said: "As technology has advanced over the past decade, new internet-based employment platforms emerged which are often referred to collectively as the "Gig Economy." Many of these platforms, such as Uber (transportation) and Instacart (grocery delivery) regularly engage "contract workers" rather than "employees" for jobs (gigs). Among other reasons, his classification allows companies Uber to operate with 20% to 30% less in labor costs than competition having employees, leading to eye-popping numbers like Uber's $40 billion valuation or Instacart's latest $220 million round of funding. Many fear that loss of the gig workforce structure, either by a wave of class-action lawsuits, intervention by regulators, or through the collective action of disgruntled workers, and the gig economy may be in serious jeopardy.

8http://www.fastcompany.com/3042248/the-gig-economy-wont-last-because-its-being-sued-to-death

 

ShiftPixy's evolution of the classic GIG model, totally eliminates this key weakness in the standard model of treating workers as independent contractors.

 

ShiftPixy has embraced the next Gen structure for the GIG economy by making their workers (ShiftPixy calls them "Shifters") employees of ShiftPixy and lending them out to third party employers in need of additional workers.

 

The employers get the benefit of having a workforce without the compliance and regulatory burdens that normally accompany their hiring of a regular workforce, particularly ones that exist in industries with many part-time/shift workers such as the restaurant and hospitality industries, ShiftPixy's initial target market. ShiftPixy and NOT the operating business is the entity that employs these Shifters and handles ACA and other administrative and regulatory compliance matters that accompany the hiring of employees. ShiftPixy totally removes that burden from its operating business clients.

 

The need for the services the Company offers is an unintended result of and has been amplified by the compliance burdens placed upon employers of GIG Economy workers under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). ShiftPixy recognized this need early on and saw it as an opportunity.

 

As shown by the studies below, the ACA's new compulsory insurance requirements for US business owners has caused companies to reduce the number of hours worked by employees as their default solution. However, that left them with a need for additional workers to fill the void.

 

As a result, employers require a greater number of employees who are each working fewer hours than before… and shift workers now need more opportunities to work for different companies in order to maintain their income level.

 

Scott W. Absher added: "The Affordable Care Act is affecting personnel decisions. A survey of more than 600 small business owners by the Society for Human Resource Management found that 20% of companies surveyed reported they have cut the number of workers they employ. Employers are not required to offer coverage for employees who work less than 30 hours per week. A related study found that 12% of employers nationwide plan to reduce workers' hours as a result of ACA1."

One direct casualty of ACA has been the shift worker, with full time employment with one employer becoming a thing of the past as employers dropped hours and shifts to bring their business into ACA compliance by having less than 50 full time employees. Full time employees not only include traditional full time workers working more than 30 hours per week but also requires employers to make complex calculations involving all part time workers to make sure they don't have part time workers constituting equivalent full time employees.

 

"There are approximately 26 million part time workers in the United States. Of these, more than 6 million people are classified as "involuntary part-time workers," meaning that they would have preferred full-time employment, but were working part time because their hours had been cut back or because they were unable to find a full-time job2.

On the other side of the table, due to ACA, in order not to be subject to ACA insurance mandates job providers now had to have more people working fewer hours. The Company has seen that race to meet the new demands and covering new gaps are stressing small business as never before in the US. The new demands have made delivery and cash flows challenging for small employers who provide most of the US employment.

 

Scott W. Absher, Co-Founder & CEO added: "We have seen that the race to meet the new demands and covering new regulatory requirement gaps are stressing small business as never before. The new demands have made compliance, staffing, and cash flows more challenging for small employers who provide most of the US employment. To address these widespread pain points, ShiftPixy has established a unique and what we believe are a highly desirable suite of services that merge insurance coverage access, operational, compliance and financial support, along with intermediation of shift workers and available shifts at participating businesses.

 

One valuable aspect of ShiftPixy's services to employers is access to a large pool of qualified shift workers that are part of the Company's proprietary ecosystem. Many of these shifters will come into the ecosystem through their current employers who become ShiftPixy clients thus making ShiftPixy the employer of record for their workers. The Company intends to add to the ShiftPixy ecosystem others seeking employment (but not working for ShiftPixy employers) from Company marketing initiatives focused on continuously expanding the pool of available shift workers, initially from the new mobile app the Company will offer in September 2016. These activities will give employers a greater incentive to become ShiftPixy clients by making available to them a greater number of qualified, local shift workers to fill available shifts through marketing to potential shifters outside the ecosystem will occur simultaneously with onboarding additional shifters via new employer enrollment with ShiftPixy.

 

ShiftPixy will initially target the restaurant and hotel industries, a market comprised of 13 million workers. Management has also identified several additional markets such as New York, Chicago, Dallas and Orlando where ShiftPixy may in the future target for marketing through what it will promote as bringing the same high value type services to these industries as it is now bringing to the restaurant and hospitality industries.

The ShiftPixy Next Gen model for the GIG Economy which we believe the natural evolution from the classic model of GIG workers being problematically classified as independent contractors to their becoming full-time employees ShiftPixy that provides these workers to ShiftPixy clients, their former employers.

 

ShiftPixy is already generating significant revenue, and has the realistic potential to achieve what few startups can in a short period of time – generate significant annual revenues.

 

Asher added: "Management has leveraged its expertise and long standing market alliances within the property and casualty producer community to assemble a large backlog of potential Provider Clients for what we believe to be the Company's unique platform and programs. ShiftPixy now is in the position of being able to select rather than inviting Provider Clients into its proprietary program which we believe will enable ShiftPixy to grow more rapidly and select clients that may add more profitably to our operations."

 

The Company stated that its proprietary mobile shifter app will be released on Labor Day 2016.

 

Absher added: "We call a prospective employee a "Shifter." We have designed our ShiftPixy mobile app to be the primary entrance into the ShiftPixy ecosystem for a Shifter who was not an employee of an company that became a ShiftPixy client. The user experience on this app is being designed to provide a simple mobile access and opportunity management tool for Shifters to select and manage their shift opportunities. ShiftPixy intends to collect nominal monthly user fees from Shifter participation in the ShiftPixy ecosystem via this app. The ShiftPixy app will also serve as a gateway for Shifters to access perks and benefits an employee of a large company would enjoy. These perks may include health dental and vision coverages, 401(k) or IRA access, and a variety of discounts."

 

Media expenditures are planned to support the launch of the mobile Shifter access application. Additionally, the Company's electronic marketing plan focuses on generating message buzz around the ACA enforcement actions we expect in 2016 will show up in the form of penalties in 2016 for the unprepared employers of 2015. These penalties are steep, potentially in the hundreds of thousands of dollars or more and we expect will gain a great deal of national attention. When this happens, the Company intends to produce a significant volume of publicity around the ShiftPixy compliance solution within the trade and financial media to attempt to attract additional clients.

 

Our planned B2B digital message program will track hot subject matter surrounding ACA enforcement and compliance and produce additional content we will use to elevate ShiftPixy as an innovative employer solution to these ACA problems

 

The Company also reported that it has filed with the SEC an Offering Circular on Form 1-A under new Regulation A+. This new SEC regulation allows not only just wealthy accredited or institutional investors but also non-accredited investors… everyday people… the opportunity to invest in A+ IPO's.

About ShiftPixy, Inc.

 

ShiftPixy was formed to take advantage of weaknesses in compulsory insurance markets and new compliance requirements for U.S. businesses where statutory requirements for business owners collide with extremely limited access to the required insurance coverage, particularly health care insurance coverage, and related regulatory compliance issues. ShiftPixy management has leveraged over 20 years of experience in developing and marketing alternative risk programs to address unique business insurance needs into the delivery of a unique and what we believe to be a highly desirable suite of services to merge coverage access with operational compliance and financial support.

 

ShiftPixy's management team discovered that recent new demands due to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) were forcing a new compliance layer into the marketplace for our existing and potential Provider Clients which we were forced to aid in addressing for them. Due to the compliance and risk areas of expertise that were core to our client delivery, mastery of an effective solution such as the one we have developed has become essential.

 

In the work to master and incorporate a means to effectively address the new ACA compliance demands as part of our core service platform we observed that shift work was now very vulnerable. The direct casualty of ACA was the shift worker who is now seeing full time employment with one employer becoming a thing of the past as small employers dropped hours and shifts to bring their business into ACA compliance. The shift worker has now become part of the under-employed and forgotten millions in the US economy.

 

One the other side of the ACA impact were the job providers who now had to have more people working fewer hours. The race to meet the new demands and covering new gaps are stressing small business as never before in the US. The new demands have made delivery and cash flows challenging for small employers who provide most of the US employment. CITATION?

 

ShiftPixy management realized that they were in the prefect position to intermediate a better solution to meet the needs on both the provider and shift worker sides of the new Next Gen labor reality in the US. ShiftPixy has developed proprietary technology and client engagement processes that enable the Company create high value on both the employer and the employee sides of the U.S. shift work chasm.

 

When launched in September, the ShiftPixy mobile app allows available and qualified shift workers to connect with immediately available shifts from participating ShiftPixy Provider Clients through a simple mobile application. Shift workers or "Shifters" can find shift opportunities within their skill set and geographic range and pick up available shifts when they need the work. ShiftPixy processes the entire workflow on the provider side from offering open shifts, approving a Shifter based on their rich profile, to processing all of the payroll, insurance and regulatory demands for each shift hour worked.

 

 
34
 

 

The ShiftPixy provider platform secures and monetizes long-term Provider Client relationships under annual agreements which are not passive or transactional but active and vital to our client's success. Our product suite is designed to meet critical operational and financial needs and are specifically focused to exploit what we see as the current market weakness, with our goal of placing our value proposition very high with the Provider Clients we target. The ShiftPixy Shifter platform secures and monetizes individuals seeking shift work based on need and availability matched to their specific skills and within their geographic range on a monthly fee basis for access.

 

ShiftPixy management has leveraged not only its expertise but also its long-standing market alliances within the property and casualty producer community to assemble a very large backlog of Provider Clients anxious for the planned launch of our unique platform and programs. The Company has the unique position of allowing rather than inviting Provider Clients into its proprietary program which allows ShiftPixy to grow rapidly and select Provider Clients profitably.

 

Our goal for our small business Provider Client business owners is to liberate them to do what they do best, provide high quality service to their customers. Our dedication and mastery of the "dailies" for our Provider Clients and ability to guide through small course corrections keep our Provider Clients on a path free of surprises or risks from failure to attend to and cure small issues before they take root and grow to expensive obstacles to the growth of the business. The resultant freedom our Provider Clients find now allows them to dedicate their focus to the growth of their business. These are truly liberating tools for small business owners on many significant business and personal levels.

 

ShiftPixy's primary Client Provider service engagement is contractual and allows Client Providers coverage access, operational and processing bandwidth from which we extract regular residual fee income monthly. Management is developing other high value touch points designed to strengthen and further monetize these Provider client engagements. Shifter user engagements will be monetized by charging for the services but keep the charges at low levels intended to drive mobile app utilization and community growth through not only shift access and opportunity management but personal access to perks an employee of a large corporation might enjoy due to the ShiftPixy economy of scale.
