Calculating New Regular Rate of Pay: Compliance Updates for Employers
On-Demand Recording
The DOL (U.S. Department of Labor) has made the most significant changes to the FLSA (Fair Labor and Standards Act) definition of ‘regular rate of pay’ in over 50 years. Employers are scrambling to see how the new law impacts them, and their employees.
A regular rate of pay can include a lot of figures outside of an hourly dollar amount. With variances such as overtime, company bonus systems and additional incentives - the math quickly becomes complex.
Accurate, compliant calculations are crucial for reduced liability and efficient payments.
In this workshop, our expert will guide you through the different types of compensation that make up the new definition of regular pay rates, best practices for compliant calculation and how to handle special circumstances to avoid Department of Labor (DOL) or employee backlash.
Join us on February 6th to:
- Understand how the new rule effects which perks and benefits employers offer
- Protect your company from payroll claims or employee complaints
- Stay compliant when incentives and overtime come into play
