The book of:
Every federal wage and hour rule an employer runs on, in plain English — what counts as hours worked, what overtime is owed, who is exempt, and what you must keep.
Anyone who decides what a worker is paid — small-business owners, office managers, payroll and HR staff — plus the employee who wants to check the answer. No legal background assumed.
Every claim in this book traces to the official text below. When the rules change, the book changes with them.
