The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) isn’t just legal fine print – it’s the backbone of how you classify jobs, track time and pay employees. Slip up, and it’s more than a paperwork problem.
In FY 2024 alone, the Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division recovered nearly $150 million in back wages tied to FLSA violations. That’s 125,000+ workers shortchanged – and a wake-up call for employers.
The heat is rising too. This year, penalties for willful or repeated violations jumped from $2,451 to $2,515 per offense.
If your wage and hour policies haven’t had a recent checkup, now’s the time. This guide breaks down the essentials – from employee classification to overtime – and gives you practical strategies to tighten FLSA compliance, reduce risk and protect your bottom line.
