Employee misclassification has been a focus for the IRS and the Department of Labor for years. Each year, class action lawsuits seek millions in unpaid overtime from employers who wrongly treated workers as exempt.
This 90-minute exempt vs nonexempt webinar explains the classification rules under federal and state law and how to avoid the misclassification trap. It covers FLSA guidelines for hourly workers, how to decide who in your workforce is exempt, and how to structure jobs so classifications are clear.
You'll work through each exemption test, executive, administrative, professional, computer employee, outside sales and highly compensated, plus exemptions for education staff, state vs federal salary basis rules, and the changes that would have taken effect under the FLSA Final Rule on Overtime.
Misclassifying an employee or group of employees can mean back pay and benefits plus substantial penalties. Knowing the limits of each worker category under state and federal rules is the best protection.
This session suits CFOs, C-level executives, HR and accounting professionals, payroll and operations leads, department managers, store directors, schedulers and staffing associates.
