The U.S. Supreme Court ruled today that GlaxoSmithKline's pharmaceutical sales representatives were exempt from overtime pay under the FLSA's "outside salesman" exemption.

There have been further developments regarding the U.S. Department of Labor's proposed regulation that would drastically limit the FLSA's Section 13(a)(15) "companionship" exemption.

A bill introduced last week would raise the federal Fair Labor Standards Act's minimum wage to $10.00 per hour.

Once upon a time, a seriously-alarmed legislative body concluded that wage-hour claims and litigation had gotten out-of-hand.
