From an employment law perspective, this means federal statutes such as Title VII, FLSA, ADA, ADEA, FMLA, USERRA, OSHA, ERISA, COBRA, among others, apply to Puerto Rico. For stateside employers, that is the easy part.
Even though you may be covered by these laws, your employee may not be. Title VII and the ADA protect any U.S. citizen employed outside of the United States, absent any conflict with foreign law (not a foreign practice, policy, custom or preference) or employed in the U.S. by a foreign employer.
Puerto Rico has enacted the Minimum Wage Act, Act No. 47-2021, increasing the Island's minimum wage from $7.25 to $8.50 effective January 1, 2022.
Companies looking to hire workers from Puerto Rico must comply with Public Law 87. It requires employers who are recruiting on the island to obtain authorization by the Secretary of Labor and Human Resources of Puerto Rico, according to Odemaris Chacon, a labor attorney with Estrella, based in Puerto Rico.
As Puerto Rico is subject to US federal law, to qualify as an exempt or "white-collar" employee, an employee must meet the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Normal Working Hours The regular work shift for non-exempt employees is 8 hours per day and a regular workweek of 40 hours per week. The workweek will begin on the day and time that the employer determines and so the employer will notify the employee in writing.
Puerto Rico is not an 'employment at will' jurisdiction. Thus, an indefinite-term employee discharged without just cause is entitled to receive a statutory discharge indemnity (or severance payment) based on the length of service and a statutory formula.
Employment law in Puerto Rico is covered both by U.S. labor law and Puerto Rico's Constitution, which affirms the right of employees to choose their occupation, to have a reasonable minimum salary, a regular workday not exceeding eight hours, and to receive overtime compensation for work beyond eight hours.
The minimum wage under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is generally applicable to any state, territory, or possession of the United States such as Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI).
Section 403 of PROMESA modified Section 6(g) of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) to allow employers to pay employees in Puerto Rico who are under the age of 25 years a subminimum wage of not less than $4.25 per hour for the first 90 consecutive calendar days after initial employment by their employer.
