Report Link Education Labor Letter: "I'll Do It for Free!"Fisher & Phillips, LLP - November 10, 2008 Many people are moved to volunteer their time to schools for religious, humanitarian, charitable, or other public-service reasons. No one wants to discourage these impulses, of course, but a school must be careful not to set itself up for a dispute over whether such a person is actually an employee for purposes of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Being wrong about this could result in substantial exposure for things like minimum-wage and overtime payments, penalties for child-labor violations, and other liability.

Getting this wrong could expose you to substantial potential liability for things like minimum-wage and overtime payments, penalties for child-labor violations, and so forth. Report Link The Wage/Hour Cocktail: One Part Work, One Part Love, Mix Well (Tastes Awful).Fisher & Phillips, LLP - April 23, 2007 But as often happens, the relationship went South and Hirsch began seeing someone else. Steelman then sued, seeking lost wages and damages under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Report Link The Wage/Hour Cocktail: One Part Work, One Part Love, Mix WellFisher & Phillips, LLP - March 30, 2007 You may think that you're working with a "partner", until things head south: your former associate may make an FLSA claim for unpaid wages.
