Wage and hour law legal research involves examining the complex laws and regulations that govern employee compensation and working hours. These laws are crucial for ensuring fair pay, proper classification of workers, and the enforcement of workplace rights. In the U.S., key federal laws such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) outline minimum wage, overtime, and child labor standards, while state laws may impose additional regulations or offer greater protections. Wage and hour research covers various topics, including the classification of workers as exempt or non-exempt from overtime, the correct calculation of wages, rest breaks, and meal periods, and the impact of misclassification on wages and benefits.
