Wage + Hour Matters

Troutman Pepper Locke possesses a highly regarded national wage and hour defense practice. With the dramatic increase in wage and hour claims and ever-changing federal and state regulations, wage and hour compliance has become of unparalleled importance to employers. Alleged violations of federal and state wage and hour laws, including overtime pay, misclassification of workers, unpaid break time and more, have proliferated and become a primary focus of plaintiffs’ counsel. Employers must ensure that their wage and hour policies and practices comply with applicable federal and state laws or risk substantial exposure.

Our employment attorneys regularly perform wage and hour compliance audits for employers as well as provide guidance regarding issues such as employee classification, hours worked, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and payroll expense control and planning. Troutman Pepper Locke’s compliance assistance also includes best practices involving management training and policy preparation.
