HARDI and a builders group are among the organizations supporting a bill that would show down the implementation of the Labor Department’s new overtime pay regulations.
Rep. Kurt Schrader (D-Ore.) has introduced a bill that would phase in the salary threshold increase over four years. Currently, the minimum salary that a worker must earn to be exempt from time-and-a-half pay is $23,660. It is scheduled to increase to $47,476 Dec. 1.
