    • Automatic Annual Increases to the Minimum Salary Would Force Annual Pay Raises for Exempt Employees on the Fringes.
    • An Administrative Interpretation of Independent Contractor vs Employee Status Already in Use, Renders Most Workers Employees for Purposes of Wage and Hour Law and Overtime.
    • Learn Practical Implications of These New Measures and Steps Employers can Take Now to Minimize Their Impact and Avoid Overtime Lawsuits.
