Raises or Overtime?

Getting people to track their time is a complete cluster. If the DOL's new salary thresholds for overtime become law, you should figure out whether it's cheaper to give people raises.

Here are the details of the proposed overtime rules, the process to become final, and some excellent suggestions from Fisher Phillips on how to prepare.

If you are a federal contractor subject to OFCCP oversight, the OFCCP want to know if the use of AI in hiring decisions will affect the demographics of your workforce. This will require you to understand too..

What's more important that supporting and encouraging learning, creativity, wellness, and building new skills? Nothing. These are the same things we want for our employees for their entire careers. Why wouldn't you want this for their kids too? Give employees the opportunity to attend their kids' school activities.
