    E142 - TORNADOS! Non Competes, Heat Illness, Human Trafficking and more!

    In this thrilling episode of the American Contractor Show, we dive deep into a storm of critical topics shaping the construction and contracting landscape.

    Join us as Derik Kline, the renowned expert from Hailtrace, provides an in-depth analysis of last week’s devastating tornado outbreak. Understand the dynamics, the impact, and what contractors need to know when facing such natural disasters.

    Next, we explore the significant policy shift with Josh Sparks of Infinity Home Services, discussing the latest Non-Compete ban issued by the FTC. What does this mean for the contracting industry? How will it impact business operations and employee mobility? Josh breaks down the essentials and offers expert advice on navigating these new waters.

    The episode takes a darker turn as we uncover a shocking case of human trafficking within the contracting world. A contractor has been arrested for trafficking his undocumented employees to work on his house in the Bahamas. We delve into the details of this appalling crime and discuss its implications for the industry and human rights.

    Lastly, with rising temperatures becoming a severe hazard, Phoenix has implemented a new heat ordinance for contractors. We’ll discuss how this will affect work conditions and what contractors need to do to comply and ensure the safety of their teams.

    Tune in to this episode for a comprehensive look at these pressing issues, packed with expert insights and essential information every contractor should know.
