- Authors
Mujtaba, Bahaudin G.; Fiedler, Anne M.
- Abstract
Compensation of workers in most larger firms can be very complex due to the nature of pay policies and procedures and the method of calculation. Many regulations are in place to ensure employees are paid fairly and in alignment with the minimum wage requirement while protecting youth in the workplace. Today, the hours worked, and the jobs performed in firms operating within the U.S. are heavily regulated to ensure fairness as well as the health and safety of all workers. This article provides an overview of the FLSA requirements for managers and human resource professionals. It also gives examples of current court cases to provide insight into the current legal environment in which this law operates. Lastly, the authors provide a compensation audit framework for HR professionals to ensure that their organization complies with the various provisions of the FLSA.
