Employers are being sued daily for alleged wage/hour violations. Wage/hour claims are the most frequent type of employment law class action. Settlements are often six or seven figures. The most common (and expensive) claims involve alleged misclassification of exempt employees. The highly experienced wage/hour defense attorneys at Davis Wright addressed the following topics:

  • Overview of the FLSA and state law exemptions
  • Focus on the two most problematic exemptions: administrative employees and independent contractors
  • Examples of common misclassification
  • Triaging risk of an agency or employee lawsuit
  • Options to minimize risk

(On-demand versions are not eligible for CLE credit.)
