ETA Signs Trade Collation Letter to Congress Opposing DOL Overtime Rule Changes
December 7, 2015
On behalf of the Partnership to Protect Workplace Opportunity (the Partnership) and the undersigned 164 state, local, and national organizations, we write to ask that you contact the Department of Labor (the Department or DOL), the Office of Management and Budget’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, and others within the Administration and urge them to reconsider the Department’s June 30, 2015, proposed changes to the exemptions for executive, administrative, and professional employees (the “white collar exemptions”) to the Fair Labor Standard Act’s overtime pay requirements. The Department is expected to finalize the rule in mid-to-late 2016. If the Department goes forward with the changes it proposed, the impact will be unduly burdensome on employers and ultimately result in significant, unintended consequences on employees.
