Judge: Vincent L. Briccetti
Court: United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Westchester County)
Plaintiff's Attorney:
Defendant's Attorney: Jonathan Marc Kozak
Description: White Plains, New York employment law lawyer represented Plaintiff who sued Defendant on a Fair Labor Standards Act violation theory.
"The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor standards affecting full-time and part-time workers in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments.
The FLSA was passed in 1938 and has been amended several times since then. The most recent amendments were made in 2009. The FLSA is enforced by the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor.
The FLSA requires employers to pay their employees a minimum wage of $7.25 per hour. Employees who work more than 40 hours in a workweek are entitled to overtime pay of time and a half their regular rate of pay.
The FLSA also has a number of child labor provisions. These provisions prohibit the employment of minors in certain occupations and industries, and they limit the number of hours that minors can work.
The FLSA is a complex law, but it is important for employers and employees to understand their rights and responsibilities under the law. If you have any questions about the FLSA, you should contact the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor.
Here are some specific examples of what the FLSA covers:
Minimum wage: The FLSA requires employers to pay their employees a minimum wage of $7.25 per hour.
Overtime pay: Employees who work more than 40 hours in a workweek are entitled to overtime pay of time and a half their regular rate of pay.
Child labor: The FLSA prohibits the employment of minors in certain occupations and industries, and it limits the number of hours that minors can work.
Recordkeeping: Employers are required to keep records of their employees' wages, hours, and other information.
If you believe that your employer is violating the FLSA, you can file a complaint with the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor. You can also file a complaint with your state or local labor department."
