FLSA Compliance Consulting

FLSA Compliance Consulting for Employers Nationwide

Employers face increasing scrutiny under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Misclassification, overtime errors, and recordkeeping issues are among the most common—and costly—violations cited by the U.S. Department of Labor. As a former U.S. Department of Labor Wage & Hour Investigator, I help employers proactively identify risks, correct compliance gaps, and stay audit‑ready.

What FLSA Requires

The FLSA establishes federal standards for minimum wage, overtime, exempt classification, regular rate calculations, and recordkeeping. Even small errors can lead to significant back wages and penalties.

Common Employer Mistakes

Employers often run into trouble with:

  • Misclassifying employees as exempt
  • Incorrect regular rate calculations
  • Off‑the‑clock work
  • Automatic meal deductions
  • Day‑rate or piece‑rate pay issues
  • Missing or incomplete records

What DOL Looks for in an Investigation

During an FLSA investigation, WHD typically reviews:

  • Payroll records
  • Timecards
  • Job descriptions
  • Bonus and incentive structures
  • Interviews with employees

I know this process firsthand—and I help employers prepare for it.
