  • The new FLSA rules and higher earnings threshold for overtime will alter the existing management structures for many employers.
  • Labor unions will increase the level of organizing activity in 2016, focusing especially on smaller units and micro unit strategies.
  • Attendance at 2016 CUE conferences will be at an all time high as companies look for help in responding to the on-going changes in the labor environment.
