As a Human Resources professional, you’re no doubt aware of the upcoming changes made to the overtime regulations of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), which will affect approximately 4 million U.S. workers.
But are you prepared for the variety of questions and conversations that will arise among members of a diverse workforce?
In this session, we’ll explore the scope of common concerns facing workers who are moving from exempt (salaried) to non-exempt (hourly) status, as well as the not-so-common concerns that will be unique to workers in different generations, as well as in different life situations. Through understanding of these concerns, HR professionals will be better prepared to develop informational tools and have more effective conversations.
