Event Description
Misclassified employees … unpaid off-the-clock work … overtime mistakes … is your company vulnerable?
More than 70% of employers are currently violating the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) in one way or another, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. It's best to identify your mistakes BEFORE a government agency or employee lawsuit does it for you!
On Wednesday, February 13, discover if you're at risk – and what to do about it – with our updated webinar, Wage & Hour Law 2019. Attorney Anniken Davenport, who literally wrote the book on wage-and-hour compliance, offers practical, step-by-step compliance advice for your organization.
Wage-and-hour law is facing some of its biggest changes in a generation.
While President Trump's DOL has changed some of its enforcement priorities, wage-and-hour violations have actually INCREASED. In 2018, the DOL collected a record $304 million in wages owed to workers and the agency increased the employer penalties for individual FLSA violations. State labor agencies are also stepping up their enforcement.
Plus, what's happening with the big federal changes to overtime law? Obama's proposed doubling of the salary threshold to over $47,000 didn't happen. But the Trump DOL has restarted the overhaul effort, and these changes could be the most complicated and far-ranging yet.
Please join us at this empowering event so you can find (and defuse) your payroll mistakes before they trigger a lawsuit or government investigation.
