Employee Timekeeping – Why It’s Important
Pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) employers must maintain accurate timekeeping and pay records for nonexempt employees in order to track and pay over time. This article from ADP is a good introduction to the basics of employee timekeeping.
As I have written about previously, the FLSA is a common vehicle by which many former and current employees can bring minimum wage and OT claims against their Employer. Over the last decade, FLSA claims have increased dramatically. This is true not just in North Texas, but nationwide.
With the Department of Labor’s focus on classifying more workers as “employees”, a topic to be left for another discussion, one can be reasonably certain the FLSA and diligent employee timekeeping will remain at the forefront of Employer’ minds.
A new development called Frisco Crossing is planned for north Frisco. It will feature a cluster of restaurants with outdoor patios and a food truck park. Apartments and single-family homes would also border green space, while several retail stores would go up nearby and a dozen more eateries would border the edges of the 83.8 acres at the southwest corner of FM 423 and US 380.
