📣📣📣Overtime Rule Struck Down: What Employers Need to Know In a significant development, a Texas court has ruled that the Department of Labor’s overtime rule—phased in starting July 1—is invalid. As a result, the planned January 1 increases will no longer take effect. This decision, citing the recent Supreme Court ruling limiting deference to federal agencies, underscores a shift in how courts evaluate agency authority. What does this mean for employers? ➡️ Immediate Impact: Employers no longer need to implement the January 1 changes. ➡️ Compliance Check: Review your pay practices to ensure alignment with current rules. ➡️ Stay Vigilant: Overtime regulations remain a high-stakes issue; more changes could be on the horizon. ➡️ Practical tip: Consider the impact on morale when evaluating pay especially for those employees that received a pay bump as of July 1. #Becker #EmploymentLaw #OvertimeRule #Compliance #BusinessUpdates
