Description: Greenbelt, Maryland employment law lawyer represented the Plaintiff who sued the Defendant on a abor: Fair Standards Act violation theory.

"The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards for employees in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments.

Minimum wage

The FLSA requires employers to pay their employees at least the federal minimum wage. The current federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, but some states and localities have higher minimum wage laws.

Overtime pay

The FLSA requires employers to pay their employees overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. Overtime pay is calculated at a rate of one and one-half times the employee's regular rate of pay.

Recordkeeping

The FLSA requires employers to keep certain records about their employees, including their hours worked and wages paid. Employers must keep these records for at least three years.

Youth employment

The FLSA establishes certain restrictions on the employment of minors under the age of 18. For example, the FLSA prohibits employers from employing minors under the age of 14 in most industries.

FLSA violations

Employers who violate the FLSA may be required to pay back wages and liquidated damages to their employees. Liquidated damages are equal to the amount of back wages owed to the employee. In addition, employers who violate the FLSA may be subject to civil penalties and criminal prosecution.

Employees who believe that their employer has violated the FLSA may file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division. The Wage and Hour Division will investigate the complaint and may take enforcement action against the employer.

Here are some examples of FLSA violations:

Paying employees less than the federal minimum wage
Failing to pay employees overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek
Failing to keep accurate records of employees' hours worked and wages paid
Employing minors under the age of 14 in most industries

If you believe that your employer has violated the FLSA, you should contact the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division."
