FAQ
A recent ruling by the United States District Court for the District of Puerto Rico clarifies that Law 44, Puerto Rico's counterpart to the federal American with Disabilities Act (ADA), applies only to employers and does not provide for individual liability.
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.
The FLSA applies only to employers whose annual sales total $500,000 or more or who are engaged in interstate commerce. Originally the FLSA prohibited child labor; it has since been expanded to prohibit wage disparity due to gender and discrimination due to age.
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.
