Employee wage and hour law is governed by a federal statute called the Fair Labor Standards Act, or FLSA for short. This law offers critical protections such as establishing the federal minimum wage, setting rules for overtime, creating standards for child labor, and requiring equal pay for men and women performing the same jobs. This course will help employees understand the law and how it applies to them.
