BBB and MSEC to Host Workshop for Businesses on Wage and Hour Laws
by Nick LaFleur on Feb. 10, 2011, under Life, TipsBetter Business Bureau of Southern Arizona and Mountain State Employers Council (MSEC) will host a workshop, Navigating the Murky Waters of Wage and Hour Laws, on Wednesday Feb. 16, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Residence Inn Marriott, located at 5400 Williams Circle in Tucson.
Class action wage and hour lawsuits have been exploding, and are now as common as discrimination suits. Employers have fallen prey to many of these lawsuits, in part, because the laws can be confusing.
Presented by Curtis Graves, staff attorney for MSEC, this session will give businesses an understanding of the Fair Labor Standards Act and the most current information regarding Arizona wage laws. Registration is $10 for BBB Accredited Businesses and MSEC members; $15 for all others. Lunch will be included.
Anyone who wishes to attend should register no later than 5 p.m., Feb. 14 by visiting, www.tucson.app.bbb.org/events.
