Description:
As with most of the employment laws, there are specific supervisory responsibilities for which you are accountable. The Fair Labor Standards Act, passed in 1938, sets several key standards of work: minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor standards. First and foremost is the classification of employee positions as exempt or non-exempt, which is fundamental to the FLSA because it sets the basis for compensation.
In this webcast, you will:
- Learn about the FLSA and some of its key provisions
- Define exempt and non-exempt classifications
- Identify the types of exemptions
- Review salary requirements for all exemptions
- Distinguish hours worked by employees, including overtime and compensatory time
- Understand requirements for recordkeeping, including timekeeping and records retention
- Become informed about child labor provisions
