Wage and Hour Mistakes Cost $213M+ —Learn How to Avoid Them

By - Vicki M. Lambert, CPP

| 100 Mins

Staying compliant with federal and state wage and hour laws has never been more critical. From calculating overtime to handling travel pay, meal breaks, minimum wage, and paying terminated employees, every detail matters—and mistakes can be costly.

The Department of Labor (DOL) continues to aggressively pursue wage and hour violations. In FY2022 alone, agency-initiated investigations uncovered violations that resulted in over $213 million in fines and penalties. Civil lawsuits are equally dangerous—wage and hour claims have financially shaken even the largest companies.

This in-depth webinar, led by payroll expert Vicki Lambert, will arm you with the knowledge and tools you need to ensure compliance, reduce risk, and keep your organization out of financial and legal jeopardy.
