As December’s new federal overtime rules loom ever closer, many businesses are beginning to feel the pinch of employee lawsuits over wage and hour violations.
Over the past 20 years, private wage and hour disputes in the US have increased 450%. Since 1985, employee lawsuits in Texas alone (for the Total FLSA Back Wages Agreed to and Civil Money Penalties awarded) totaled a whopping $254,153,314.
However, this doesn’t even begin to cover the loss of time, productivity, lawyer fees, and loss to reputation employers have endured!
