RECORDED TRAINING COURSE
Remote working is slated to be the future of our global workforce. You might be more familiar with its old name: “Telecommuting”. Whatever you call it, the flexibility to work outside an office is the logical next step in a world with smartphones and wi-fi. 2019 has been a big year in remote working, with about 66% of companies in the US employing remote workers. Working outside the office is no longer just for the self-employed or contract employees. Around the world, 70% of professionals in traditional office jobs work remotely at least once a week. Technology is advancing and, with that, there’s a trend towards an increasingly mobile business model. Both employees and employers benefit from remote working.

Why You Should Attend
With telecommuting arrangements, employers must monitor carefully the work hours of employees who are not exempt from federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime requirements in order to avoid a violation of unpaid overtime. With employees in compressed workweek schedules, employers must adjust the defined workweek so no employee overtime is incurred; they must make sure that their timekeeping procedures incorporate any state daily overtime requirement and maximum hour limitation.
