The California Public Employee Relations Program at the Institute of Industrial Relations at U.C. Berkeley has published the first edition of the Pocket Guide to the Fair Labor Standards Act . Each chapter tackles a broad topic by providing a detailed discussion of the law's many applications in special workplace environments. For example, the chapter that covers overtime calculation begins by defining regular rate of pay and then considers the payment of bonuses, fluctuating workweeks, and alternative work periods for law enforcement and fire protection employees. Specifically written for public sector practitioners, the Pocket Guide to the Fair Labor Standards Act is a must for employers and employees affected by this federal statute. Orders must be prepaid by check or international money order payable to UC Regents-CPER or by Visa or MasterCard.
Substantial discounts are available for bulk orders.
