About the Program
Recently, unpaid internships and whether an individual is properly classified as an intern have become 'hot-button' issues, drawing increased scrutiny from the Department of Labor and plaintiff's attorneys alike. Misclassification of an intern can create employer liability for unpaid wages, attorney's fees, and potential fines. Join FordHarrison attorney Bret Yaw as he discusses internships under the Fair Labor Standards Act, as well as some best practices for avoiding liability while utilizing unpaid interns. This webinar will cover the following topics:
- DOL Wage & Hour Enforcement
- FLSA Requirements
- Unpaid Internship Requirements
- Non-Profits & Volunteers
- Recent Litigation and Internship Trends
