Overview:
The Fair Labor
Standards Act (FLSA), commonly referred to as the Wage and Hour Act, was passed
in 1938 and since then has been amended many times. The major provisions of the
FLSA are concerned with minimum wage rates and overtime payments, child labor,
and equal rights. The US Department of
Labor, Wage & Hour Division, oversees federal labor laws. Additionally, State DOLs administer state
labor laws. Failure to comply with Wage & Hour laws may result in the
employer paying the employee back wages, damages, penalties, attorney fees and
court costs, plus the prospect of civil and criminal penalties from federal
and/or state governments. Therefore, Wage & Hour compliance is of the
utmost importance.
