ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Following up on the Department of Labor’s new overtime rule announced last week, NACS is hosting a webinar series to help convenience retailers navigate these new changes.

The new rules raise the eligibility ceiling for overtime pay from its current $23,660 annually to $47,476. Therefore, any employee paid below the $47,476 threshold may soon be entitled to overtime pay for all work over 40 hours per week. By Labor Department estimates, up to five million currently exempt workers could be eligible for overtime pay. This huge modification of overtime law could profoundly affect U.S. businesses—like yours—as employers will need to evaluate whether and how they must update their compensation plans to be in compliance.
