Training Overview

New Supreme Court FLSA Decision. Is a $200K employee entitled to overtime?

On February 22, the U.S. Supreme Court took us through a tangle of interrelated regulations to an America where an employee can earn more than $200,000 a year and still successfully sue his employer for tens of thousands more in unpaid overtime!

In the wake of the Hewitt case, companies cannot afford to be uninformed or careless. Organizational exposure to FLSA liability has never been more acute. To protect your company and employees you must understand the FLSA, its regulations, and analogous state wage and hour laws.
