Fair Labor Standards Act I webinar

Common issues that arise in FLSA claims

By

The Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA) will present FLSA I on Wednesday, July 2, 2014, at 10:00 AM CDT.

The first step in addressing the onslaught of wage and hour claims is to understand the federal law behind those claims. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) has seen increasing attention from plaintiffs’ attorneys and from the federal government in recent years. We will explain, in a two-part discussion, some of the more common issues that arise in FLSA claims. Our first program will include discussion of:

  • What is the Fair Labor Standards Act?
  • Recent class and collective action developments under the FLSA
  • What does the FLSA require employers to do?
  • Minimum wage requirements under the FLSA
  • Payment for all time worked
  • Training time issues
  • Travel time issues
  • Waiting time issues
  • Rest and meal periods
  • Working off the clock
