Description

The Multi-state Employment Law Handbook provides crucial insights into the Labor laws in California for salaried employees in Illinois, focusing on key rights and protections under federal law. It outlines various topics essential for understanding employment law, including wages, hours, leave, and child labor. Notably, it discusses the Fair Labor Standards Act, which establishes minimum wage and overtime protections, as well as the Family and Medical Leave Act, which allows employees to take leave for specific family and medical reasons. The handbook emphasizes that employees can seek redress through the Department of Labor if their rights are violated. It is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, and owners, as they can use the handbook to advise clients on maintaining compliance with labor laws. Associates, paralegals, and legal assistants can also benefit by using the summaries to assist with case preparations and client consultations. The handbook serves as a foundational resource for understanding the complexities of employee rights and employer obligations in a legal context.

FAQ

Effective July 1, 2024, the salary threshold will increase to the equivalent of an annual salary of $43,888 and increase to $58,656 on Jan. 1, 2025. The July 1 increase updates the present annual salary threshold of $35,568 based on the methodology used by the prior administration in the 2019 overtime rule update.

Typically, if an individual is working in California, they are subject to California labor laws, irrespective of where they live, including both part-time and full-time, in-state and out-of-state workers.

As a salaried exempt employee, you must make at least double the yearly amount that a minimum wage hourly worker would make working a 40-hour work week each week. Beginning in 2023, California established that the minimum wage in the state is $15.50 an hour; however, depending on where you're located, it might be more.

There is no limit as to how many hours an exempt salaried employee can work in any given day or week. These employees earn a consistent salary, regardless of the number of hours worked.

WARNING SIGNS OF TOO MUCH OVERTIME One of the first indicators of excessive overtime is your wage bill. If all or most of your employee's actual wages are consistently 30–45% higher than their salary, alarm bells should be going off – especially if it's every month.

Most salaried employees don't often exceed 45-50 hours of work in a given week. If a job regularly requires more than 50 hours of weekly work, then the role is probably poorly designed. The roles, duties and responsibilities may be completed more effectively if distributed across multiple jobs.
