Smart Compensation Strategies for Small Employers: How to Maximize Your Budget and Reduce Legal Risks

Compensation Strategies Webinar Recording

If a giant retail conglomerate like Wal-Mart, with all of its resources to ensure legal compliance, can be accused of wage & hour law violations, what exposure do small employers face, especially when they lack that kind of legal expertise?

Small employers can run afoul of the Equal Pay Act, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and the compensation oriented portions of the Fair Labor Standards Act, such as those pertaining to overtime pay and job classification exemption designations.

In your efforts to do more with less, learn how to take extra care to ensure you steer clear of costly wage & hour violations that could sink your organization. And because you're a small employer, it's likely that at least some of your employees are wearing multiple hats and performing a mix of duties, so you need to make sure their compensation is both fair and competitive.

Learn the best small-employer approaches to making the most of your compensation budget while staying in compliance.

By participating in this interactive webinar, you'll learn:

• Unique compensation challenges small employers face
• Why it pays dividends to spend some time and effort on your compensation strategy -- even if you thinks you can't spare the resources
• Key building blocks of a compensation strategy at your company
• Important factors linking job descriptions and pay
• Costly wage & hour missteps that employers make and why small employers are particularly vulnerable
• Which large company strategies you should consider using at your organization as well as the ones to avoid
• Best practices for developing a flexible, equitable pay program
• Where you can find helpful pay survey data -- for free!

In just 90 minutes, you'll learn everything you need to know about smart pay strategies for smaller employers. Register now for this informative event risk-free.
