How to Comply with the Final Overtime Rule

Today, the United States Department of Labor finalized its overtime rule amending the “white collar” exemptions to the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Two years in the making, the final rule is expected to cause 4.2 million employees nationwide, including some 380,000 in New York State, to become eligible for overtime pay. The Department estimates that the new rule will cost employers approximately $12 billion over the next ten years. Click here to read the details.
