FAQ

Wage and hour coverage in Puerto Rico for non-exempt employees is governed by the US Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) as well as local laws.

No. You don't even need a passport. For U.S. citizens, traveling to and working in Puerto Rico is like traveling to or working in another state. U.S. citizens only need a valid driver's license to travel to and work from Puerto Rico.

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.

Nope. With the exception of Title VII, ADA and ADEA, employment laws do not apply to U.S. citizens working outside the country, even if they are working for an American company. So, a U.S. national loses FMLA protection once he steps off U.S. soil.

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.

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.

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.

Section 29 CFR 825.105(b) of the FMLA regulations states that the FMLA applies only to employees who are employed within any State of the United States, the District of Columbia or any Territory or possession of the United States. Territories or possessions of the United States include Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands
