This webinar will explain how to undertake a voluntary self-audit of your organization’s pay practices. Attendees will learn how to determine who is exempt from the overtime provisions of the FLSA and how to document classification decisions.
This webinar will both identify FLSA areas that are the subject of current Wage and Hour Division, Department of Labor (WHD) enforcement efforts and, more importantly, what to do about them. This course will teach you how to undertake a voluntary self-audit of your organization’s pay practices to determine if employees have been properly classified as being either “exempt” or “nonexempt”; and, what to do when employees have been misclassified. Attendees will also learn how to, where appropriate, implement the fluctuating workweek method of wage calculation in light of the Department of Labor’s Final Rule on wage calculation methodologies.
