Byler Discusses New Overtime Rules in Youngstown Business Journal

Posted by Admin Posted on Nov 26 2016

Gene Byler was quoted in a recent Youngstown Business Journal news story about the new overtime laws that the U.S. Department of Labor are implementing starting Dec. 1.

In the article, Byler said "managers of fast-food restaurants and department managers at retail stores paid less than $913 a week are the two groups that often work beyond 40 hours and aren’t paid for the extra hours they put in."

He noted that "maybe we’ll see more part-time workers hired.” He suggests that "it’s more likely part-time employees will see their hours increased and more duties reassigned to them."
