Wage and Hour Update

Winston & Strawn hosted an eLunch titled “Wage and Hour Update” on Friday, July 31, 2015, from 12:15-1:30 p.m. (Central). 

Despite several employer-friendly cases over the last few years, filings of wage and hour class actions continues to increase—creating risks and costs for even the most cautious companies. During the eLunch, Joan Fife and Emilie Woodhead discussed the latest wage and hour issues employers face and strategies for addressing them. Areas that were addressed include:

• An update of significant cases
• Misclassification cases and the DOL’s proposed changes to overtime exemptions
• Independent contractors and lawsuits alleging they are de facto employees

Clients and friends of the firm are invited to attend seminars and events. We reserve the right to limit attendance at any firm event.
