The Alaska Department of Labor & Workforce Development is a state agency responsible for overseeing labor laws, workforce development programs, and unemployment insurance in Alaska. They work to ensure compliance with state regulations and provide resources to support a strong and healthy workforce in the state.
When it comes to managing employees, one key decision employers must make is whether their workers are classified as exempt or non-exempt. This employee classification determines whether they’re eligible for overtime pay.
The difference boils down to salary and job duties, but it’s not always as simple as it sounds — especially when dealing with both federal and state laws.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) lays the groundwork for salary thresholds across the U.S., but states can impose their own rules. Some states have higher salary requirements than the federal government, and that’s where things get tricky for employers.
Keeping a keen eye on payroll is essential. Payroll reports are the financial blueprint leading companies through compliance and financial management.
These documents are the narrative of a business’s financial health, employee compensation, and adherence to the regulations governing the modern workplace.

Meet Employee Handbooks—a new way for HR teams to maintain a fully compliant employee handbook, complete with state-specific policies and real-time updates as their business and legislation changes.
Most handbooks aren’t compliant Many organizations lack sufficient HR resources to maintain their handbooks, exposing them to lawsuits, fines, and penalties. Keeping policies current requires coordination with lawyers across all states where employees work, plus regular updates for changing laws and regulations. Due to their complexity, handbooks demand significant time and resources to manage properly. When these resources aren’t available, critical updates get delayed or missed, creating compliance gaps. These gaps—and the associated risks—only grow larger the longer handbooks remain outdated.
