Preparing for More Wage and Hour Audits

The U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division is making good on its repeated signals and threats to crack down on Texas employers who violate the Fair Labor Standards Act, especially those in the oil and gas, construction and hospitality industries. It's not unusual for the Wage and Hour Division to select specific industries and geographic areas to audit for one or two years, rather than wait for an individual complaint, when it suspects that there are widespread industry violations of wage and hour laws.
