Complying with the Fair Labor Standards Act ? Exemptions and Overtime


Overview
This webinar on employee overtime calculation will help you understand what is "time worked", exempt versus non-exempt status and how to calculate your employee's overtime correctly so to avoid these costly suits
Why should you attend this webinar?
Lawsuits under the Fair Labor Standards Act have reached an all-time high. The Department of Labor estimates that 72% of all employers are not in compliance with their obligations to pay overtime to non-exempt workers. Even employers with the best intentions find themselves violating some aspect of the Fair Labor Standards Act. In addition to misclassification issues, employers fail to recognize what time must be compensated and then how to calculate how much is owed when the employee works overtime. The use of personal digital devices and the growing popularity of telecommuting have made this task even more difficult!

The Fair Labor Standards Act is designed to protect those that Congress felt were in an unequal bargaining position with the employer. While your employees may not complain that they are not being paid properly, a Department of Labor audit will force you to provide back pay for misclassifications or not calculating overtime correctly. This can wreak havoc on you budget. Are you prepared?

  • Determining whether your employees are exempt from overtime

Understanding Design Controls

Compliance Key INC  -  Medical Device Training Overview Design Controls are the processes used to design, develop, and manage medical devices that you manufacture. They are mandated by federal regulation, however, the regulations concerning design controls are vague in terms of the specific process steps required and the approaches that should be taken to achieve compliance should be developed. Knowing how the FDA both views and examines design controls is crucial to achieving compliance throughout the life of the medical devices you manufacture and is one of the most valuable compliance subject areas to explore.
