Overtime Overhaul: Business Groups Take On Biden Admin’s New Rule

Business Groups Challenge Biden Administration’s Overtime Pay Rule

Lawsuit Claims Rule Would Harm Small Businesses and Management Employees

According to FastCompany, a group of business organizations in the US is trying to stop a new rule from the Biden administration. This rule would make many workers get overtime pay when they work more than 40 hours a week. The business groups think this rule is too much and would cause problems for them.

The lawsuit says that the US Department of Labor doesn’t have the power to make this rule and that it would hurt small businesses and non-profit organizations. The business groups also think the rule is flawed and could cause problems for management employees. The Labor Department hasn’t commented on the lawsuit.
