Are you in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act? Basically every business is subject to these laws and they are perhaps the most far reaching of any labor laws. Did you know you must pay your coworkers for all work, even if you did not authorize or approve it? Learn how you can pay your employees for “billable time” and avoid paying unnecessary overtime. How much time off are your employees entitled to? What records do you need to keep and for how long? Can I avoid overtime if I classify some of my people as independent contractors? How often must I pay employees? Do I need to include bonuses when calculating overtime? You will learn the answers to all of these questions and many more. This book teaches you the things you need to know about the FLSA. Includes specific information by state. We have also included an Independent Contractor Agreement, Employment Poster, FLSA Law, and much more. Documents are included in Microsoft Word format. This book includes about 45 pages and 12,000 words of information for you to use as a reference.
