Event Synopsis:
For nearly eighty years, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) has been tirelessly promoting fair labor conditions and protection for workers against abusive treatment, whether it be from excessive working hours, child labor, unpaid overtime and unsafe working conditions. The update, also referred to as the white-collar overtime provision, would double the salary threshold of employees guaranteed overtime pay. However, a few weeks before its scheduled implementation, a consortium of 21 states filed a joint lawsuit to keep the Department of Labor (DOL) from implementing the new exemption rule.
After repeated extensions and the uncertain future under the new administration, numerous possibilities now exist and along with these possibilities are challenges and pitfalls that may potentially create unwanted risks.
In this LIVE Webcast, a seasoned panel of thought leaders and professionals brought together by The Knowledge Group will provide and present to the audience an in-depth analysis of the fundamentals as well as the emerging issues in FLSA. Speakers will also go beyond the basics and provide best practices and practical tips to avoid potential risks and pitfalls.
