?????? Since April, employers, HR professionals, and legal teams have been reviewing and preparing for the FLSA salary threshold increases imposed by the US Department of Labor. Last Friday, November 15th, a Texas Federal Court struck those down. What does that mean for employers? It means employers who were working on increasing salaries and reviewing their employees for exemption status can pause and regroup. Experts suspect the DOL will appeal, but advise that it's unlikely the appeal will make it past the incoming Republican administration. In Maine the minimum salary for exempt employees will still be changing in January 2025, but the increase is significantly lower than the federal one proposed. Maine will be $845.21 per week, or $43,951 per year. Did your team already start making increases and changes? Don't worry, you're far from alone. Range Culture Co. is here to support you through the untangling process! Contact us today to see how we can help: [email protected]

?? ?? Does your team offer remote work? Let us know where HQ is and where you are in the comments! Since 2020, we've seen employees spread out all over the country and even the globe. Remote work can be a great tool to support your employees' personal needs, and it can attract more qualified candidates without regional restrictions. There are so many benefits to allowing your teams to work from the places that make the most sense for them! When considering if adding or keeping remote work is right for your team, we at Range encourage you to review the employee's state's laws. It's important for employers to know the laws and regulations in the states their employees are actually working, not necessarily the state in which the employer is based. Don't fret! Your friends at Range Culture Co. are here to help you navigate the process and support your employees in the best ways possible.

Election Day is upon us! Is your team ready to support voting? Maine does not have a specific law about allowing employees the time to vote during working hours, but many employers are taking steps to ensure their teams have the time they need to vote. Here are some ways employers can help. 1. Allow for flexed, or modified schedules on Election Day. 2. Offer paid time off. Employees covered under Maine Earned Paid Leave can use their accrued time to vote.? 3. Set up blocks on calendars, or modify business hours to allow employees to go to polls. 4. Work together with your teams to set up car pooling or transportation to the polls.? 5. Send out reminders on the day, and provide resources to your teams so they know when and how to vote. Encourage participation whenever possible. How is your organization supporting employee voting? Tell us in the comments! #ElectionDay #Voting #MaineElection #HR #HumanResources #Maine #HRConsulting
