  Overview
 

The state Wage and Hour Bureau and the federal Wage and Hour Division present this public workshop to help educate businesses about applicable labor laws and other potentially troublesome issues. Co-Sponsored by the Morrisville Chamber of Commerce and DRAKE & Associates, Ltd., this one-day workshop offers the community a chance to learn from and ask questions of the experts.

The Department of Labor has been mandated to conduct educational events to help employers be compliant with the law. The focus of this seminar is to educate for compliance and will not lead to adverse action.

   

Topics Covered

The seminar's emphasis will be on the new federal overtime exemption rules. Other topics will include:

  • state and federal labor law coverage
  • employer-employee relationship
  • minimum wage (including tipped employees)
  • time and one-half overtime pay
  • promised wages and wage benefits
  • child labor/youth employment (including hazardous/detrimental/prohibited occupations and work permits)
  • hours worked, and various other employment laws
