You will receive detailed information about recordkeeping requirements enforced by the United States Department of Labor, and practical approaches to implementing company-wide recordkeeping.

  • You will be able to recognize what is an improper deduction and its effect on exemption status.
  • You will be able to recognize how a misclassification could have potential consequences and be uncovered.
