On this episode, Pete and Julie welcome Samuel Dahan, Law Professor, Chief of Policy at the Deel Lab for Global Employment, and Director of the Conflict Analytics Lab, to the show for a conversation on the mission of the Deel Lab and the worker classification case law research underway at the industry-first consortium. The conversation touches on Samuel’s path to and passion for employment law, and the work he is leading at the Deel Lab, which aims to advance innovation in compliance technology and knowledge in global work policy. Samuel discusses the “Setting the Record Straight” blog published by Deel offering a fact-based rebuttal to recent criticism of its solution and approach.  They discuss the importance and impact of the lab’s research on global employment, AI’s role in its case law review and confidence index, how the work will shape the future of the global employer of record model, and the future of the Deel Lab and its work.
