THIS EVENT IS NEARLY SOLD OUT. CALL THE CHAMBER 347-4150 TO SEE IF THERE IS STILL SPACE.
If you have salaried employees between $23,000 and $47,476, you need to be aware that the Department of Labor is making changes to overtime regulations. The changes will affect the majority of the businesses in the area. Businesses will see these new regulations being in effect on December 1, 2016. The new rule contains very significant revisions to the exemption rules and will affect millions of employees currently classified as exempt. These employees will become eligible for overtime, significantly impacting many employers budgets.
The time to be proactive and prepare for the rule, is quickly running out. Attend this seminar so you know what you need to do to prepare. THIS EVENT IS NEARLY SOLD OUT. CALL THE CHAMBER 347-4150 TO SEE IF THERE IS STILL SPACE.
