A new post on the HR Certification Institute’s (HRCI) HR Leads Business Blog addresses several recent legal developments, offering guidance to help businesses and HR professionals stay on top of relevant rulings.

The blog post delves into the U.S. Department of Labor’s delay in the release of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) exemption rule, which addresses exemption from overtime and minimum wage requirements. Readers will also learn more about the bipartisan Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (ADEA) legislation that has been introduced, record winnings of back wages awarded to employees of the East Penn Manufacturing Company, and modifications by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to independent contractor status under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).

Read about each of these topics in the HRCI blog post.
