While the differences between gross pay and net pay may be common knowledge to you and most of your workers, going back to basics can be helpful for understanding the regulations that govern the difference between take-home pay and pay rate.
Learning about these complementary regulations can help prevent complications in business. Employers who comply with payroll laws regulating gross and net pay can better ensure company success as well as employee well-being.
You might consider your employee handbook just some bureaucratic formality, but it’s actually the backbone of workplace clarity. It’s where expectations meet obligations, creating a structure for employees to thrive and businesses to operate with confidence.
From remote work policies to anti-discrimination guidelines, a well-written handbook keeps everyone on the same page. An outdated handbook can be a liability — it’s a breeding ground for confusion, misalignment, and legal exposure.
Overtime pay is a fundamental element of labor law, ensuring that employees are fairly compensated when they work beyond their standard 40 hours a week. It’s designed to protect workers from overwork and to encourage employers to hire additional staff if needed rather than relying on excessive hours from existing employees.
Starting in 2024, the Department of Labor (DOL) is implementing significant updates to the overtime rule, potentially impacting millions of employees and the businesses that employ them.
