FLSA Lawyers

The FLSA is an acronym for the Fair Labor Standards Act, a federal law that governs minimum wage, child labor, overtime and recordkeeping for a wide number of employees. Not ever worker in the U.S. is specifically covered by this law, but most full-time employees are covered. The FLSA is best-known as the minimum wage law. Over time, the minimum wage is increased in an effort to ensure that the lowest paid workers in the country can sustain a decent living. However, the law also covers the important areas of child labor rules and overtime pay rules.
