New Overtime Rule Changes are Imminent Whether you employ 10 or 10,000, the "exempt/non-exempt" overtime rules have always been a perplexing HR problem - a problem that will become more complex with new Regulations from the U.S. Department of Labor. The Department is proposing major changes to the most commonly utilized "white collar" exemptions from the requirement to pay overtime. Among other changes, the new Regulations will double the minimum salary that must be paid in order to maintain an exemption. It is estimated that the new Regulations will increase the entitlement to overtime pay for nearly 5 million workers. The Impact These changes will have significant impact - both financial and operational - on your business. Do you know what the new Regulations require? Do you know who will be exempt and who will not? Have you considered alternatives that may be available to you so that you will be in compliance? Ignoring the new Regulations could have severe consequences: remember, wage-hour litigation is the fastest growing type of litigation in the employment field.
