84 Days and Counting – Is Your Company Prepared for the New Overtime Rule?

September 9, 2016 by Christopher R. Fontan

By now, I’m sure everyone is aware of (or at least heard of) the U.S. Department of Labor’s upcoming changes to the Overtime Rules contained in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).  Brunini’s Labor & Employment Newsletter Subscribers have received numerous updates over the past year, alerting them to the pending change and its potential implications:

  • https://www.brunini.com/update-u-s-department-of-labor-releases-proposed-rule-to-expand-employee-overtime-eligibility/
  • https://www.brunini.com/u-s-department-of-labors-final-overtime-rule-not-expected-in-2nd-half-of-2016/
  • https://www.brunini.com/ready-expanded-employee-overtime-eligibility/
  • https://www.brunini.com/department-labor-announces-increase-wage-hour-penalties-employers/

Knowing about the upcoming change is one thing – being prepared for the change is something else altogether.  The New Rule is scheduled to go into effect on December 1, 2016.  That’s just 84 days from today.  Has your organization taken the steps to be in compliance with the New Rule when it goes into effect?

Brunini’s Labor & Employment Practice Group has prepared an article outlining practical considerations for employers to consider and implement in order to prepare for and comply with the New Rule.  You can access this article here: Ways to Prepare for the New Expanded Employee Overtime Eligibility.

Our professionals are available to discuss your organization’s current structure, as well as any steps needed to insure compliance with the ever-changing legal landscape facing employers.  Contact any one of our Labor & Employment Practice Group professionals with any questions concerning the upcoming transition.
