WHAT IS IT?

​​

Our Wage & Hour Audit is designed to give you peace of mind, empowering you to focus on your business while we handle the complexities of state, federal and municipal labor regulations. With this audit, we review your employee census and salary data to identify compliance gaps, focusing on key areas that impact your bottom line:

• Are employees classified properly as exempt or non-exempt?

• Does each employee meet minimum standard for minimum wage (either state or municipality)?

• Are employees paid overtime properly?

• Does organization meet Fair/Equal pay standards for each employee or has met exemptions such as seniority, merit, or other bona fide factor?

• Are applicable laws for remote employees being complied with?

 

Laws the Audit Helps Comply With

The audit helps businesses comply with key labor laws, including:

• Federal/State/Municipal Wage Orders: These specify minimum wages, work hours, and overtime requirements for various industries and occupations.

• Sections addressing minimum wage, overtime pay, exempt vs. non-exempt classifications, meal and rest breaks, paid sick leave, and accurate record-keeping.

• Fair Pay Act: Ensures that employees performing substantially similar work are compensated equally, addressing potential wage disparities across gender, race, or ethnicity. Many states have similar laws.

• California Assembly Bill 5 (AB 5): Governs worker classification as employees or independent contractors, with the ABC test for determining employee status.

• Paid Sick Leave Requirements: Ensures compliance with mandatory paid sick leave laws if states/municipalities require them.
