Webinar: Are your Employees Still Exempt? A Review of the DOL’s 2024 Final FLSA Overtime Regulation
Date: August 9, 2024
In this webinar, Betsy Davis, partner and Co-Chair of Whiteford's Labor & Employment Section, discussed the significant changes introduced by the Department of Labor's Final Rule, issued in April 2024, which raised the salary threshold for salaried exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). With the first change set to take effect on July 1, 2024, and more to follow over the next three years, Betsy Davis provided a comprehensive overview of the common exemptions under the FLSA, explained the DOL’s increased salary thresholds, reviewed common pitfalls, and examined the litigation challenges to the Rule, including the preliminary injunction issued by a Texas Federal Court on June 29, 2024. She also offered best practices for managing the impending Rule change.
