The Oklahoma Secretary of State is the state agency responsible for overseeing elections, business registrations, and maintaining official state records. They play a crucial role in ensuring compliance with state laws and regulations, as well as providing important resources for businesses and voters in Oklahoma.
Overtime pay regulations can be challenging, especially when legal changes and court rulings change the plan. Recent developments in Texas — including a federal court’s decision to block proposed changes to overtime eligibility — have called into question how overtime works in the state.
This article shares the current overtime rules, the implications of recent legal rulings, and best practices for business compliance with Mosey.

Salary transparency laws are a relatively new phenomenon in the US—until Colorado enacted the 2021 Equal Pay for Equal Work Act, no US jurisdictions required businesses to disclose pay information to employees or the public.
Since 2021, eight additional states and multiple jurisdictions have passed similar laws. An increasing number of legislators and policy groups have also called for additional action, identifying wage secrecy as a contributor to both the gender pay gap and wage gaps affecting people of color—and citing a growing body of research showing that salary transparency can increase pay equity.
HR compliance can be downright overwhelming. The same goes for employee turnover, fostering a healthy culture, and ensuring HR actually helps drive growth rather than impede it. Unfortunately, with so many organizations operating with HR blind spots, those feelings are often well-founded.
However, a comprehensive HR assessment illuminates these blind spots by evaluating everything from basic compliance to strategic initiatives. This thorough audit of tactical and strategic HR functions reviews initiatives, processes, and procedures to highlight strengths, pinpoint weaknesses, and provide a roadmap for improvement.
