I also recommended specific changes to their policies and contracts to align with the latest legal requirements. The client appreciated my thorough approach and trusted my expertise in labor law. They implemented the recommended changes and successfully avoided any potential legal issues.

To rectify the situation, I developed a customized compliance plan for the company, outlining the necessary steps to ensure they were fully compliant with labor regulations. This included updating their payroll system, implementing a robust timekeeping system, and providing training to supervisors on overtime pay requirements.
