FAQ

Are My Workers Employees? The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) only covers employees. The FLSA defines employee as "any individual employed by an employer" and employ is defined as including "to suffer or permit to work." The concept of employment in the FLSA is very broad and is tested by "economic reality."

An employer is not required to hire someone regardless of whether they meet the requirements or not. For the most part, you cannot sue someone because they don't hire you. There are a few exceptions, for instance if you can prove discrimination in their hiring practices.

California Laws California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) protects applicants and workers from age discrimination in the hiring process. Under FEHA, it is illegal for an employer with five or more employees to treat an applicant or employee adversely because of their age.

If You're Turned Down for a Job or Promotion There are times it's legal for an employer to deny you a job or a promotion based on information in your background report. Other times, the employer's decision to deny you a job or a promotion might be based on discrimination.

“Works made for hire” are an exception to this rule. 1 For legal pur- poses, when a work is a “work made for hire,” the author is not the individual who actually created the work. Instead, the party that hired the individual is considered both the author and the copyright owner of the work.

Is There a Limit on Working Hours in New York? The New York State Department of Labor does not limit the number of hours employees can work per day. This means employers may legally ask their employees to work shifts of eight, ten, twelve, or more hours each day.

Employers in New York State must provide certain employees with at least 24 consecutive hours of rest in any calendar week. This is referred to as a day of rest, and the Guidelines (below) provide more specific details. Employers may apply for a variance from the day of rest requirement.

There are no limits on: The number of work hours per day (except for children under 18)

Besides health and safety, wages and benefits and discrimination, employment law also often focuses on labor relations, unemployment compensation, family and medical leave, employee contracts, immigration and even the hiring process.
