Webinar Recording: Navigating Wage and Hour Risks Under the Biden Administration

Click for PDF

In February 2021, Seyfarth's Wage Hour Litigation Practice Group published the inaugural edition of the FLSA Handbook. The handbook not only summarizes the substance of the federal wage and hour laws but also provides guidance for employers’ responses to investigations as well as checklists for conducting self-audits. It is intended to provide a ready resource on frequently encountered issues arising in the rapidly evolving wage and hour compliance space.

In this webinar, members of Seyfarth's Wage Hour Litigation and Government Relations & Policy Practice Groups provide a deep dive on this important resource. As presenters provide a curated look at wage and hour considerations for employers under the new administration, specific topics covered include:

  • The Biden Effect on FLSA Enforcement by the Federal Wage and Hour Division ("WHD")
  • How to Respond to a WHD Investigation
  • 16(b) Litigation Trends
  • Mitigating Wage and Hour Risks: Best Practice Pointers for Conducting an Effective Self-Assessment
