Report Link Kampai! Sushi Chefs Ruled Eligible for Tip Pool.
Fisher & Phillips, LLP - March 04, 2009
The hospitality industry has not escaped the nationwide wave of wage-hour lawsuits. A contentious area under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act has involved the practice of requiring tipped employees to contribute some of their tips to a pool that is split among other workers.

Report Link New FMLA Regulations Leave Employers Scrambling to Comply.
Fisher & Phillips, LLP - November 19, 2008
After years of waiting, the U.S. Labor Department (DOL) has just published new regulations interpreting the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). These are the first significant changes since 1994, and will impact every employer subject to the law.

Jackson Lewis LLP - February 12, 2008
The Department of Labor has released long-awaited proposed revisions to the Family and Medical Leave Act regulations. If adopted, the changes would alter significantly many current FMLA procedures. The proposed regulations were prompted in part by continued tension between employers and employees concerning intermittent leave and the Supreme Court's 2002 Ragsdale v. Wolverine Worldwide Inc. ruling, which invalidated a DOL regulation that penalized employers for failure to comply with the technical employee notice provisions of the FMLA regulations.

Time spent responding to patient care demands may be compensable as overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act for eight hospital nurses and technicians who frequently experienced interruptions during their half-hour unpaid lunch breaks.
