As discussed in Littler’s ASAP “State Laws Complicate Salary Requirements for Exempt Employees,” many employers are reviewing the classification of their employees following the DOL's updates to the salary level needed for the white-collar exemption under the FLSA earlier this year. But don’t worry! We have solutions to help make it easier for you.
Navigator OT is designed to help you determine the risk of classifying a position as exempt and provides you with a report with information on understanding and lowering the risk of the position’s classification. If you have multiple positions to evaluate, Navigator OT has functionality which allows you to initiate multiple questionnaires at once. There is also a feature which allows you to re-assign a questionnaire, if multiple people need to assist in completing it, and the option of copying and re-running previously submitted questionnaires.
The Reference Center has reports on different areas of employment law, including minimum wage and tip credits, rate changes, and pay frequency, broken down by jurisdiction. You can compare this information across different jurisdictions and share information with your colleagues who have access to the solution.
If you have any questions about these solutions, please contact us at support@compliancehr.com.
