FLSA Regulations

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a law that sets standards for working conditions, including minimum wage, maximum working hours, and overtime pay in the U.S. It ensures employees are fairly compensated, requiring employers to pay time-and-a-half for hours worked beyond 40 in a week. The FLSA also regulates child labor and sets record-keeping requirements. Its goal is to promote fair treatment of workers while providing businesses with clear guidelines to comply with labor standards.
