A new article in Construction Business Owner titled Avoid The Wage-Hour Lawsuit Boom covers many of the types of issues that employers must address in today’s environment. These concerns are also involved in any mobile technology solution.
Austin Lane’s flagship mobile technology product, ALPay, was initially developed in 1999 to address the needs for mobile time-costing for various industries. This important step in automating the payroll process requires careful consideration of all of the existing laws and regulations for time-keeping and employer reporting to various agencies. Austin Lane’s staff has years of experience in developing and supporting payroll software applications, and this knowledge is instrumental in providing a solution that meets the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the host of other federal and state regulations. Employers should consider this a top priority in considering any mobile technology solution to protect their organizations from damaging litigation and penalties.
