Webinar Recording: Time Well Spent Session 5: Exemptions and Responses
About the Program
Much has happened in the 10 years since our national Wage and Hour Litigation Practice Group wrote ALM’s authoritative Wage & Hour Collective and Class Litigation treatise. We are excited to continue our informative webinar series to discuss—in bite-sized increments—the past decade’s most important changes to the federal and state employee pay litigation landscape.
A critical component of wage-hour compliance is understanding and properly applying exemptions to statutory and regulatory minimum wage and overtime rules. The three familiar “white collar” exemptions –the executive, administrative, and professional exemptions -- are often difficult to navigate with nuanced requirements under federal and state law.
Other exemptions, such as those applying to computer employees, outside sales employees, highly compensated employees, certain commissioned employees, and employees covered by the federal Motor Carrier Act, may be less familiar to employers and provide both traps for the unwary and opportunities for exempt classifications.
Join our panel as they discuss current law surrounding these exemptions, recent and upcoming developments, and best practices for your organization.

Our Wage & Hour Collective and Class Litigation treatise, published by ALM Law Journal Press, is widely recognized as an authoritative resource on the subject and is commonly used by lawyers, judges, and academicians in researching the many complex and evolving procedural and substantive defense issues that may ultimately determine case outcomes.
