The new overtime rules, recently implemented, represent a significant shift in how overtime pay is calculated and applied across various industries. Both employers and employees must understand these new regulations to navigate the evolving labor landscape effectively.
In this course, we will discuss the changes in the minimum salary requirement for exempt employees to $844 per week. We’ll also dive into overtime pay, a vital aspect of wage law. For non-exempt employees, overtime must be paid 1.5 times the regular rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek. Special considerations apply to tipped employees: overtime must be calculated based on the full minimum wage, not the lower cash wage when using a tip credit. Recent regulatory updates clarify that tip credits only apply to work directly related to tip-producing tasks, ensuring that supportive duties are also appropriately compensated.
