The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) affects more than 90 million American workers. This federal law regulates a number of areas of wage and hour law, including minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor standards requirements for both employers and employees. Are you certain that you are correctly classifying your employees and interpreting all of aspects of the law correctly?
With all of the rules and regulations involved, specifically with exempt and nonexempt employee classifications, the FLSA is one of HR's trickiest fields to navigate. Many organizations struggle with employee classification standards, and are even further confused by what criteria are used to determine the appropriate classification. Is the employee salaried or hourly? What are the employee's job duties and job title? Are other specifics involved? Make even one mistake administering FLSA, and you could be putting your company at risk.
Can you confidently answer the following questions?
- What types of set standards and rules help classify nonexempt employees?
- Which employees are provided an exemption from minimum wage and overtime provisions?
- How should the salary level, salary basis, and job duty tests be applied to your employees to determine classifications?
- Are highly compensated employees classified differently than typical employees?
- What is the difference between blue collar employee and white collar employee classifications?
- Does pay frequency affect how overtime calculations are determined?
- How is overtime pay calculated when a holiday falls during the week?
- How are commission-based employees classified?
