Paying Overtime Under the FLSA Part 2

Paying Overtime Under the FLSA Part 2

This is the second of a two-part webinar that will help you better understand the sometimes confounding requirements and procedures involved in overtime calculation Calculating overtime pay for nonexempt employees sounds so simple. Common folk lore says you simply count the hours the employee works beyond 40 hours a week. Then you multiply that by 1.5 times their hourly pay rate and you’re done right? Not so fast. The truth is that overtime rules and the mathematics required to arrive at the correct calculation can be extremely tricky.

Penalties for overtime violations can be severe with the possibility of fines, imprisonment or both! Add civil suits to the mix and the results can be devastating to any business no matter how large or small! And just to make it interesting, most states use the same definition to calculate overtime as the FLSA does. So one error can earn you double the penalties.

What you will learn

  • Calculating under both the FLSA and alternate method when no bonus is involved
  • Comparing the FLSA method and the Alternate method when a bonus is involved and why using the Alternate method will result in fines, penalties and interest
  • Calculating under the FLSA method when a bonus is involved and paid in the same workweek as earned
  • Calculating under the FLSA method when a bonus covers more than one workweek
  • Calculating overtime when more than one rate of pay is involved
  • Calculating overtime for employees paid on piece work and commissions
