The long-anticipated final rule overhauling federal overtime exemption eligibility requirements was released on May 18 and – as we flagged in our recent alert – the December 1, 2016 compliance deadline looms large.

Suzanne King and retired partner Tony Derosby hosted a presentation on June 28 in Portsmouth to discuss the new overtime rule and what it means for businesses. They covered:

  • The new salary thresholds for “white collar” overtime exemption
  • Use of bonuses and commissions to comply with the salary requirements
  • Timeline for implementation of the rule
  • Legislative and legal challenges to the rule
  • Strategies for employer compliance
  • Potential employer liability under the rule
