Department of Labor Offering Free Smart Phone Application For Wage Hour Tracking

The US Department of Labor (DOL) recentlely released a new smart phone applicant that provides workers the ability to track their hours and calculate OT.  This is just another sign of an increased focus on wage and hour matters.  On May 9, 2011, the DOL announced the launch of its first application for the iPhone smartphones, described as “a timesheet to help employees independently track the hours they work and determine the wages they are owed.”  Available in English and Spanish, workers can independently track hours they work and determine wages they are owed.  Through the free application users can also access government information and materials about wage and hour rules.

 

If you aren't sure your wage and hour practices are in good shape it would be a great idea to do an internal audit and correct any issues- before you get the call from the DOL because an employee using the new application has discovered you haven't paid them correctly.
