I opened up my mail today to read yet another story about a company violating the Fair Labor Standards Act. Once again it was a restaurant that was so bad they had to pay $654,366 in back wages to 567 employees for multiple FLSA violations. There was, however, a link in this article to a set of videos that have been put together as instructional aids for employers to help understand the FLSA. I have attached one of the videos below so you have a chance to see what has been produced. For those of you educated in the FLSA they may seem simplistic, but apparently, that is what is needed for the majority of businesses. If you know anyone that is starting out in business, or a small company that is unsure of what applies to them then point them to this series of videos by the US Department of Labor.
