The Department of Labor has issued new overtime regulations effective December 1, 2016. Under the new regulations, the minimum weekly earnings an exempt employee must earn will increase from $455 to $913 per week. In addition, the new regulations left in place the requirement that in order to be exempt from the overtime requirements, an employee’s primary duties must be considered exempt. But what are considered exempt duties? Under the law, an employee must be a working in a bona fide executive, administrative, or professional capacity.
Tune in to our webinar when Sadina Montani of the law firm of Vedder Price will discuss “what is a bona fide executive, administrative or professional employee”. Also, find out what steps an employer should take to make sure its employee are being properly classified. Now is the time to review your employee classifications, before the new wage limits go into effect.
This webinar is a joint project of DC Bar Pro Bono Center and Lawyers Clearinghouse.
