The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes specific minimum requirements in relation to employees' wages, hours of work, overtime entitlements, and payroll records. The act was passed to set and enforce federal requirements on minimum wages and overtime. The FLSA became federal law in 1938 as part of President Roosevelt's New Deal--its primary aim was to respond to growing concerns about poor working conditions in many industries. The FLSA regulates wages, maximum hours of work and overtime, as well as child labor. This one-hour course enables participants to understand the main provisions of the act, helping both employees and employers understand their rights and responsibilities in relation to those provisions. SkillSoft's Legal Compliance courses are developed and maintained with subject matter support provided by the Labor, Employment, and Employee Benefits Law Group of the law firm of Sheehan Phinney Bass Green PA.
