As 2021 draws to a close, many employers are looking ahead to 2022 and hoping to reduce legal risk in the new year. Yet, pay practices put in place for nonexempt employees during the pandemic combined with the Pennsylvania Supreme Court’s decision in July in Heimbach v. Amazon.com have created a perfect storm of wage-and-hour risk for Pennsylvania employers.

Prudent employers are examining both Heimbach and employee pay practices to assess their wage-and-hour risk via wage-and-hour audits. These audits look at employer pay practices, worker classifications, and remote work policies, among other areas, to identify potential noncompliance, make any required modifications and potentially avoid costly litigation.
