Baltimore HR CEO Discusses New Overtime Regulation Changes With Legal Experts on Emmy Nominated Show

BALTIMORE - Aug. 18, 2016 - PRLog -- In the American Law Journal episode titled "Wage, Hour and Overtime: What's 'Fair Pay' Today," Jumpstart:HR's CEO Joey Price and three prominent U.S. labor attorneys discuss the controversial Overtime Law, Tip Law and Uber contractor vs employee debates. The episode was later nominated for a Regional Emmy in the "Interview/Discussion Program/Special" category by The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences – Mid-Atlantic Chapter.

To be nominated in this category, the show had to be at least 75% unscripted. Overtime Law, Tip Law, and Uber contractor vs employee debates are driving an immense amount of legislative action, which is helping to establish employer and employee sentiment on the topics. Joey Price, being the only HR professional on the panel, later states:

"Being a part of this award-worthy show is an honor. Being the only practicing HR professional on the panel is a special honor. Highlighting the unique experiences of the millions of small to medium-sized business owners, and the HR challenges they face, is a position of authority I take very seriously."

Jumpstart:HR, LLC stays on the forefront of these HR issues by offering consulting and educational services for small business owners across the United States. Debates on what classifies an employee as exempt or nonexempt from overtime, employers skimming server tips and the misclassification of contractors continue to be at the forefront of wage and hour litigation. The upcoming legislation on these topics for small to medium-sized employers will continue to make waves in the way that they hire employees and will help to shape the future of the U.S. job market.
