Wage & Hour Laws for Supervisors
Federal law sets out specific Wage and Hour requirements, but when supervisors miscalculate time worked or misclassify compensatory time and overtime, organizations can face steep legal consequences. According to published reports, the U.S. Department of Labor has shifted significant resources to agencies responsible for enforcing wage and hour compliance and health and safety laws. This course is a supplemental module to our All Employees course and educates supervisors on essential managerial issues, including their role in recordkeeping, addressing errors and taking complaints under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
