Finally, the session will conclude with the instructor providing conclusive answers to frequently asked questions from HR professionals about how to correctly classify their employees as exempt and non-exempt and avoid the combination of fines, penalties, or payment of unpaid wages that may be imposed by the Department of Labor for misclassification of exempt or non-exempt status.
