Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) helps ensure employees are paid fairly for hours worked. In May of this year, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) announced a significant change in the FLSA anticipated to impact over 4 million employees across the nation, including approximately 900 SSU staff members. The Savannah State University's Office of Human Resources is working diligently to prepare for a successful implementation of the new FLSA regulations and hopes this website will provide for you the details and resources that will assist in making this transition as smooth as possible.
