This winter is turning out to be particularly harsh in the South and East. The Northwest has been fortunate so far, but winter is not over. Freezing rain, snow and ice often make commuting difficult, and school closures can keep parents at home to care for their children. What if a firm's employees can't make it to work? What are an employer's obligations to its exempt and hourly employees? What about minor employees? What if business operations are shut down during a winter storm?
This is a good time to review inclement weather policies to ensure compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and state wage and hour laws.
