The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a U.S. federal law that establishes standards for minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor. For HR professionals, especially those managing smaller organizations, understanding the FLSA is not just a legal requirement but also a key component of fostering a fair and compliant workplace. With evolving work environments and the increasing complexity of employment laws, staying informed about the FLSA is essential to protect both employees’ rights and your organization from potential legal pitfalls.
