October 20: Let’s Talk About Employee Wage and Hour Compliance

Wage and hour compliance continues to cause big headaches for employers. Non-compliance exposes companies to individual, Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA), and class action claims, and other representative actions. Wage and hour laws continue to multiply, with new regulations, court decisions, and myriad changes to existing laws impacting employer compliance obligations. The continuing pandemic further complicates the compliance landscape. For experienced human resources professionals, this webinar will be a practical “refresher.” For less experienced human resources professionals, this webinar will introduce real-world advice regarding wage and hour essentials.

To learn about what your company needs to do to stay in compliance and out of court, join us for an overview of the legal requirements and best practices of California wage and hour law.
