Long Island Breakfast Series - Paycheck Pitfalls: Wage and Hour Compliance Challenges Facing New York Employers Right Now

Join Jackson Lewis P.C. and Long Island SHRM for their annual Workplace Law Breakfast Series.

Wage and hour litigation remains one of the most active areas of employment law in New York, and recent legislative changes and litigation trends are creating new traps for even well-intentioned employers. This session zeroes in on the compliance flashpoints generating the most claims right now — from overtime calculation issues, uniform maintenance pay lawsuits and manual worker pay frequency rules to evolving spread-of-hours and tip credit obligations.

Key Subtopics:

• Uniform maintenance pay: the surge in class action litigation, who is covered, and how to calculate the correct allowance

• Manual worker frequency-of-pay rules: recent statutory amendments limiting damages and what they mean for payroll practices 

• Spread-of-hours obligations: when the extra hour of pay applies and common misapplications 

• Tip credits and service charges: updated rates, proper notice requirements, and the difference between tips, gratuities, and service charges under New York law 

• Practical payroll audit steps: identifying exposure before the plaintiff's bar does
