Wage and Hour Laws: Fair Labor Standards Act and 2024 Changes to the Law

Wage and Hour Laws in 2024


The major provisions of the  Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) are concerned with minimum wage rates and overtime payments, child labor, and equal rights. The US Department of Labor, Wage & Hour Division, oversees federal labor laws.  Additionally, State DOLs administer state labor laws. Failure to comply with Wage & Hour laws may result in the employer paying the employee back wages, damages, penalties, attorney fees and court costs, plus the prospect of civil and criminal penalties from federal and/or state governments. Therefore, Wage & Hour compliance is of the utmost importance.
