1.25 HR Credit | Competencies: Critical Evaluation | Intended Audience: Senior-Level
Workplace Application:
This session will help you critically evaluate payroll practices and identify issues which, if not addressed, could result in substantial liability. 

 

This session will review the DOL's latest enforcement trends, and initiatives as well as the most common errors employers make in classifying employees as exempt, capturing all "hours worked" for pay purposes, and calculating the overtime pay due. By understanding the errors others have made, often inadvertently and innocently, you will be better able to evaluate your payroll practices, identify potential compliance issues, and not run afoul of the federal overtime compensation rules. You will learn about the nuances in classifying employees as exempt or non-exempt as well as in calculating time worked for overtime pay purposes.
