EMPLOYEE PAY
It is important to conduct a regular review of your HR (human resources) procedures to ensure compliance with the law and prevent employee lawsuits. The checklist below features key steps for evaluating your management practices.
- Employees must be properly classified as exempt or non-exempt based on their specific job duties and compensation.
- Review all pay practices, including minimum wage and overtime compensation, to ensure compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and any state law.
- Make sure employee pay periods (weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly) are scheduled in accordance with state and federal law.
- Pay and incentive programs should treat employees equitably, and decisions regarding promotions and merit raises should be based on clear, objective criteria.
- Independent contractor relationships must be carefully reviewed to prevent misclassification.
