?? Legal Update for Employers: U.S. District Court in Texas Sets Aside Overtime Rule ?? In a significant development for businesses across the U.S., a U.S. District Court in Texas has ruled to set aside the Department of Labor’s (DOL) revised overtime rule, which sought to increase the salary threshold for overtime eligibility. This decision has major implications for employers and staffing professionals alike. ? The rule, which would have raised the salary threshold from $23,660 to $35,568 annually for overtime eligibility, is now on hold. This means that businesses will not be required to implement the salary increase for exempt workers at this time. ? ?? Key Takeaways: - The ruling blocks the DOL’s attempt to automatically increase the salary threshold, leaving the previous threshold in place for now. - Employers should continue to monitor developments in this area, as appeals and further regulatory action could still be forthcoming. - This decision underscores the ongoing need for businesses to stay informed about federal and state labor regulations to ensure compliance. ?

The “court found that the FTC lacked authority to impose substantive rules on unfair methods of competition (what FTC considers noncompetes to be),” George Reardon wrote. “The court also held that, even if the FTC had sufficient authority to impose such rules, the rule that it actually created to ban non-competes is unconstitutional, arbitrary and capricious and is therefore?unlawful.” If you have any questions please reach out to Texas Association of Staffing Board member David Anderson #staffingindustry #texas #staffingintexas #Noncompetes
