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.
