Think the FLSA does not affect your city's fire department?
Think again... No other law impacts fire department operations nor costs local governments more than the FLSA.
Fire departments have paid out more than $650 million in damages and legal fees from FLSA lawsuits over the past 20 years alone.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that was originally enacted in 1938, but has only applicable to fire departments since the mid 1980's.
FLSA for Fire Departments is a comprehensive overview of wage and hour issues in the fire and emergency services. This three-day live program addresses the most important topics governed by the Fair Labor Standards Act, including overtime requirements, maximum hours, determining regular rate, payments made to volunteers, comp time, substitutions, record keeping and much, much more.
This program would benefit all fire and emergency service leaders, municipal finance, payroll, and HR personnel, as well as any other administrators responsible for paying firefighters. Additionally, union officials and attorneys responsible for collective bargaining would also benefit greatly from the program.
