Overtime Rule On Deck: Is Your Company Compliant?

With a Dec. 1, 2016 deadline looming, many employers are scrambling to prepare for the Department of Labor's new overtime rule, which will double the salary threshold required for overtime pay.

The rule, which is currently being contested by 21 different states, will ultimately result in a reclassification of numerous employees and will require diligent evaluation of payroll and timekeeping processes in order to remain compliant.
