PART 2 of 2
Federal overtime rules for nonprofits can be confusing, but they are of critical importance to organizations’ budgets, operations, and staff members. Independent Sector invites you to join a two-part digital learning series about how to comply with federal overtime rules and how to prepare for potentially major changes on the horizon.
Part 1 | Tuesday, May 24, 1:00-2:00pm ET
Is your organization in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act?
If you’re unsure, this is your opportunity to find out exactly what you need to know. Officials from the U.S. Department of Labor will lead an exclusive training session for the charitable community that will clarify overtime rules, help you determine which employees they may affect, and provide you information for determining if your organization and its affiliates are in compliance.
Part 2 | Tuesday, May 31, 1:00-2:30pm ET
What would it mean for your organization if the federal overtime threshold doubles?
Currently, nonprofit organizations are required to pay overtime to certain employees that work more than 40 hours a week and receive a salary of $23,660 or less. The U.S. Department of Labor has proposed raising the salary threshold to $50,440 – an increase that would cause both practical and compliance issues for many organizations. A final rule is expected soon, and it is critical that the sector has the information and tools to be prepared. A panel of sector experts will lead a strategy session that will help your organization manage the proposed expansion of overtime coverage.
