McAllen Wage and Hours Lawyer

Many wage and hours disputes are governed by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), a bill originally signed in 1938 that initiated minimum wage laws, established provisions for overtime pay, and outlawed child labor. Since then, through a series of amendments, the original meaning of the bill has been updated to keep up with changing social ideas of what “fair labor standards” means. Most amendments brought minimum wage up to a livable level with respect to current economic conditions, while others changed or added rules.  The 1963 Equal Pay Act provided “equal pay for equal work” The 2004 Fair Pay bill redefined overtime rules. It is a lot to keep track of, but employers are bound to these rules.  The Pruneda Law Firm will help shine light on those rules for your business.

Disputes often happen around overtime benefits, when an employee is on the clock. The Pruneda Law firm can help your business review and asses these situations based on specific lines from the current text of the FLSA.
