Employment Law: Tuning Up Your Wage & Hour Practices for 2024
Hosted on Zoom
Event Details
Abstract
Regular check-ups can help to identify and resolve issues before they become costly problems, especially with the constantly evolving wage and hour compliance issues employers face. Fisher Phillips attorneys Matthew Korn and Stephen Gee will present the essential wage and hour compliance requirements all employers should be aware of to enable attendees to identify any potential gaps in their current wage and hour practices. Matthew and Stephen will highlight compliance with upcoming changes to FLSA overtime requirements, properly classifying employees as exempt from the overtime requirements, whether bonuses must be included in the regular rate for computing overtime premiums, tracking and paying for time worked by non-exempt employees, and other common wage and hour compliance issues for autism service provider organizations. With wage and hour lawsuits on the rise, you do not want to miss this important update.
