Duration: 40 minutes | Format: SMS | Certificate included

Master FLSA Basics Before Small Errors Become Big Problems.

One missed hour, one wrong overtime calculation, or one misclassified worker can create expensive problems for your business. FLSA mistakes are often small at first, but they can lead to back pay, complaints, penalties, and damaged employee trust. This course helps business owners understand the key pay and time rules that are easiest to get wrong.

You will learn how to spot common risks involving minimum wage, overtime, off-the-clock work, meal breaks, employee classification, and payroll records. You will also see how to review actual work practices, not just job titles or schedules, so you can catch problems before they grow.

The payoff is simple: stronger payroll practices, fewer costly surprises, and more confidence when making pay decisions. By the end of the course, you will have a practical process for checking hours, pay, classification, and records so your business can respond to issues early and keep workplace practices on stronger ground.
