Complying with the myriad federal and state requirements governing how you pay your workers is a daunting task under the best of circumstances. But in today’s economic environment, when companies are under intense pressure to cut costs wherever possible, the risk of walking into a costly wage and hour violation increases significantly.

Paul DeCamp, chair of the Wage and Hour Practice Group at national employment law firm Jackson Lewis LLP and former Administrator of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division, will discuss how you can anticipate and avoid potentially-costly concerns such as off-the-clock work, misclassification of workers as exempt or as independent contractors and salary deductions during furloughs.

During this session, we will:

• Address why it is so important to understand and to get control over your wage and hour practices today;
• Examine the key wage and hour concerns for 2010 and beyond;
• Provide five rules for managing wage and hour issues effectively in your business today ; and
• Facilitate a Q&A session to address your employer-related questions surrounding wage and hour practices.

Keynote Speaker:

• Paul DeCamp, Partner Jackson Lewis LLP, former Administrator U.S. Dept of Labor, Wage and Hour Division
