Now that Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed into law a bill amending the California Labor Code to exempt certain computer software professionals from overtime pay, you should be reviewing whether all of your "professional" employees are just that in the eyes of the law. Don't think you're affected by the newly enacted amendment? Estimates put the number of workers statewide affected at around 250,000. Are you willing to take that gamble?
Join us on Dec. 4 for an in-depth audio conference all about the requirements of the professional exemption, including the newly enacted legislation and other thorny areas that could cause you grief. Our experts—both experienced California employment law attorneys—will cover:
- The most common mistakes California employers make when classifying professional employees for overtime purposes - and how you can avoid repeating them
- The specifics on the new amendment to the California Labor Code, and how to avoid misclassifying your IT professionals
- Which jobs seem like they should qualify for the professional exemption, but don't
- What "work requiring advanced knowledge" really means, in plain English, and what constitutes a "field of science or learning"
- How to review your professional job classifications and descriptions for red flags that could mean overtime exemption problems
- The safest ways to fix professional exemption classification errors - without triggering DOL audits and employee claims
