On April 23, 2024, the U.S. Department of Labor (#DOL) released a final rule, effective July 1, 2024, that increased the salary thresholds for the executive, administrative, professional, and highly compensated employees exemptions under the #FairLaborStandardsAct (#FLSA). This rule will require employers (except the State of Texas) to raise the salaries of #exempt #employees or reclassify those employees as #nonexempt. In this blog, Gibbons Director Richard Zackin and associate Catherine Soliman, both members of the firm’s #Employment & #Labor Group, outline the essential components of the final rule and potential impacts for employers under #federal and #state #wageandhour laws.

It's #TipTuesday! Betty Graumlich provides this week's tip reminding employers to evaluate how the DOL's new compensation regulation will impact their workforce and current wage and hour practices: The Department of Labor just announced that, effective July 1, 2024, the minimum salary threshold for employees classified as “exempt” under the “white collar” exemptions will increase to $844 per week ($43,888 annualized). For highly compensated employees, minimum compensation threshold will increase to $132,964 per year, where at least $844 per week must be paid on a salary or fee basis. Employers should follow any legal developments with respect to the new regulation. If the regulation goes into effect as announced, employers will need to evaluate how the new thresholds will affect employees currently classified as exempt. #employmentlaw #DOL #wageandhour #compensation

Fun fact: New York State is one of only 7 in the country, and one of only 2 on the east coast, that has its own salary threshold requirements that must be met to legally classify an employee as exempt under the state's wage and hour laws. What does that mean for employers? Which is the other east coast state? And what is a "salary threshold requirement"? Check out my latest blog post for answers to those questions and a deeper dive into this niche subject with significant financial implications for employers. https://lnkd.in/eqzQHRMD #employmentlaw
