In this edition of Fire Law Vlog, Curt and Bill Maccarone discuss some new updates to the FLSA that will be discussed in the upcoming FLSA for Fire Departments conference this week in Georgetown, Texas. Among the changes are amendments to the US Department of Labor regulations addressing the executive, administrative and professional employee exemptions that go into effect in January, 2020, as well as some proposed changes to regular rate and the fluctuating workweek.
These changes, both enacted and proposed, will have an impact on firefighters and fire departments going forward. If you cannot make the Georgetown conference, here are our upcoming FLSA classes:
