The Department of Labor has also issued new overtime security rules. The “Overtime Security Amicus Program” (http://www.dol.gov/sol/541amicus.htm ) is hoped to ensure employees better understand their rights, employers their legal obligations, and the DOL to be better able to effectively enforce the law.
