The Fair Labor Standards Act has become the employment law of choice for many plaintiffs' lawyers, and wage and hour class actions have become the lawsuit du jour for them. Hundreds of these class actions have been filed over the last few years. Wage and hour issues can lead to huge liability and affect employers of all sizes in all industries. This presentation looks at the pay practices and policies that are fueling the flood of class actions. Our speaker discusses common employee classification mistakes and how to properly determine rate of pay. The presentation also reviews the steps you can take to avoid litigation stemming from wage & hour issues, and how to self-audit to ensure compliance and identify potential problems.
