Overtime Injunction Appealed To 5th Circuit
The overtime debate is heading to the United States Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.
The injunction blocked changes to overtime regulations proposed by the Department of Labor that were set to go into effect on December 1. The rule changes were to, among other things, double the salary threshold for workers receiving overtime pay from $23,660 to $47,476 and establish a mechanism to update salary levels every few years.
