Live Webinar on Wage & Hour Compliance: Intricacies of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
OVERVIEW
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), commonly referred to as the
Wages and Hours Act, is considered to be an employee protection act. This Act
was passed in 1938. Since then, the FLSA has been amended many times. The major
provisions of the Act are concerned with Federal minimum wage rates, overtime
payments, child labor, equal pay, and recordkeeping.
The US Department of Labor, Wage & Hour Division, oversees
federal labor laws. Additionally, State DOLs administer state labor laws.
Failure to comply with FLSA rules and regulations may result in the employer
paying the employee back wages, damages, penalties, attorney fees and court
costs, plus the prospect of civil and criminal penalties from federal and/or
state governments. Therefore, Wage & Hour compliance is of the utmost
importance.
