Boost in Energy Jobs Triggering FLSA Cases in Louisiana

New Orleans Partner Tim Scott was quoted in New Orleans City Business on October 18 in the article “Boost in Energy Jobs Triggering FLSA Cases in Louisiana.”

The article discussed the importance of tracking employee pay and work hours to avoid FLSA violations.

Tim argued in the article that FLSA cases in South Texas have the potential to impact oil and gas companies operating in Louisiana.

He said, “These companies have to hire and offer huge sums of money to remain competitive, but they don’t always consider what the overtime obligations should be.”
