Today's Ask the HR Expert Question: If I close my office or employees cannot make it into work due to inclement weather, do I have to pay them?
This is a great question that we get asked about every year! There are two different scenarios you need to consider. The first is for exempt employees, those typically salaried and exempt from overtime pay according to the Fair Labor Standards Act, and the second is for non-exempt employees, typically paid by the hour and eligible for overtime pay.
