Supervisors have a special role in ensuring that businesses comply with applicable workplace laws. One of the most important of those laws is the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which governs working hours and wage payments. It is important to understand these concepts to avoid exposing an organization to lawsuits, fines, or other penalties. This course will help supervisors understand the law and how it applies to employees.
If you’re a manager, labor laws probably affect more of your daily work than you think. A simple mistake, like neglecting to keep track of a break or putting an employee's time in the wrong category, can soon become a big problem.
