BREAKING NEWS: DOL's New White Collar Overtime Regulation
Welcome to Jacques H Geisenberger, Jr PC, your trusted source for expert consulting and analytical services in the field of business and consumer services. In this article, we bring you a crucial legal update that employers need to be aware of regarding the Department of Labor's (DOL) new white collar overtime regulation.
Understanding the DOL's New White Collar Overtime Regulation
The DOL's new white collar overtime regulation has significant implications for employers across various industries. It aims to update and modernize the existing rules governing overtime eligibility for employees classified under the white collar exemption.
Under this new regulation, it is important for employers to thoroughly understand the changes and ensure compliance within their organizations. Jacques H Geisenberger, Jr PC is here to help guide you through these updates and provide expert analysis to ensure your company remains in compliance.
Implications for Employers
The DOL's new white collar overtime regulation primarily focuses on two main areas:
1. Salary Threshold Increase
The regulation raises the salary threshold for employees to be exempt from overtime pay. Previously, employees earning less than a certain salary threshold were automatically entitled to overtime pay, irrespective of their job responsibilities. With the new regulation in place, this threshold has significantly increased.
As an employer, it is crucial to review the salaries of your white-collar employees and determine if they meet the new threshold. Jacques H Geisenberger, Jr PC offers comprehensive salary analysis services to assist in this evaluation process, helping you make informed decisions and minimize the risk of non-compliance.
2. Job Duties Test
In addition to revising the salary threshold, the DOL has also modified the job duties test used to determine exempt status. This test evaluates the primary job duties of employees to assess whether they qualify for exemption from overtime pay.
Understanding the updated job duties test is essential to ensure accurate employee classification. Jacques H Geisenberger, Jr PC provides in-depth job analysis services, helping you assess your employees' roles and responsibilities in light of the new regulation.
