“Can I be fired for not working overtime when asked?” More often than not, an employer isn’t going to fire a good worker when they need workers because they only work their allotted hours. However, it does happen. Contact Bantle & Levy to learn more about your employee rights. https://ow.ly/FQQW50Qe5rv #BantleLevy #Law #LawFirm #Legal #EmployeeDiscipline #DisciplinaryAction #EmployeeRights #NewYork

I am often asked what are the most important things to deal with when hiring your first employee. TOP OF THE LIST IS - Employment contract! My advice is don't download one off the internet and hope that it will be ok. You need to ensure your contracts include information on as many workplace-related issues as possible, so everything from probationary periods to what type of contract to have (zero-hours or fixed-term), to overtime (and how to calculate it) should be in the contract. Also be sure to define someone’s employment status before creating any contract, as many UK laws distinguish between whether someone is a worker or an employee. I get calls regularly from people who are having issuing with an employee who has a badly written contract or no contract at all. Remember since April 2020 it is the law to give an employment contract! This has to be done by the end of the first day of them working for you. Make sure you include all paid benefits, statutory or otherwise, written in the contract and the notice period. There are many other things to consider and I can help - just contact me for advice and support or a review of your current employment contracts. #EmploymentLaw #SmallBusinessAdvice #HRAdvice #UKEmployment #ContractLaw #EmployeeRights

If you are worried about the Federal Overtime or Non-Compete Regulations that are now out and are presently slated for implementation in the near future, but you missed my webinar discussing both topics, you are in luck because you can watch it and learn about the issues all employers should assess before the time is upon us all. There are so many things organizations can do to prepare to stay ahead of the curve, no matter what the respective pending litigation ends up doing... https://lnkd.in/ePaim_Hk Oh and if you want to learn a bit about the litigation filed concerning the OT regulations, you can find out more here: https://lnkd.in/eskSTQ9F Let me know what you think. Also, if you do watch, please take the time to do the survey as I am always seeking to get better as a speaker, training evangelist and as the Employment Law Translator. #hr #employer #workplace #culture #flsa #dol #ot #overtime #brownandconnery #emplaw #employmentlaw #noncompete #speaker #wageandhour Ken Bode Christine Proffitt Lauri Ann Plante, MSOD, SPHR, SHRM-SCP (she/her/hers) John Baldino Diane Irwin, CPRW, CHJMC, CEIP FLO RYAN Karen Olt Miller Bill Emerson, CSP William "Chip" Rogers Ronald Scully, PHR - SHRM CP Todd Cohen, CSP - Inspiring ENTIRE Organizations.

Hybrid work arrangements continue to help with recruiting and retention of employees. Hybrid work also can create wage and hour overtime, trade secret protection, and other unintended employment law issues. As we roll into summer, has your company reviewed its hybrid and confidentiality policies, and reminded remote and hybrid workers about those policies? #hybridwork #employmentlaw #centralpark #offleash

Unions will push for restrictions on part-time work, including minimum four-hour shifts and 28 days’ advance notice of rosters during a major review of part-time employment conducted by the Fair Work Commission. But employers have accused unions of “demonising” flexible forms of work, and will seek new provisions allowing part-time employees to agree to work additional hours without overtime. FWC president Adam Hatcher said the “fundamental review” of part-time employment would establish a standard model in awards, while the tribunal would also determine a new working-from-home clause in the clerks award that could be a model to operate across industries.
