Federal and state wage and hour compliance remains one of the most critical responsibilities in the payroll department. This webinar focuses on the wage and hour requirements that payroll professionals must follow, including overtime calculation, travel time, minimum wage, posting requirements, meal and rest periods, pay frequency, approved methods of payment, and the rules for paying terminated employees. Attendees will gain practical insight into how these requirements affect payroll preparation and day-to-day compliance obligations.
The Department of Labor takes wage and hour violations very seriously, and the risks to employers continue to grow. In FY2025 alone, agency-initiated investigations found violations that resulted in fines and penalties exceeding $259 million. Civil lawsuits for wage and hour violations also remain a significant threat, with penalties severe enough to shake the financial foundations of even some of the world’s most successful companies. Join Vicki M. Lambert, CPP, “The Payroll Advisor,” for this information-packed webinar and get the knowledge you need to help protect your company from costly wage and hour mistakes and financial jeopardy.
