Overview
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) Training
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that establishes standards for minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping and child labor. The FLSA also defines which types of work must be paid on an hourly basis and which jobs are exempt from overtime. Enforced by the US Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division, the FLSA applies to individuals working full time and part time, in both the private and public sector.
Misclassifying employees as independent contractors and misclassifying non-exempt employees as exempt are among the common FLSA mistakes that can lead to costly penalties for employers. Providing FLSA training to managers and supervisors during the onboarding process can help organizations comply with the law and maintain fair employment practices.
