Nevada's minimum wage and daily overtime rates increase beginning July 1 | Carson City Nevada
CARSON CITY — The Office of the Labor Commissioner reminds Nevada employers that the minimum wage will increase effective July 1, 2021. Assembly Bill 456, passed by the 2019 Nevada Legislature, increases the minimum wage in increments of 75 cents annually through 2024.
The State of Nevada has a two-tier minimum wage system based on qualifying health benefits being offered to employees. For the period covering July 1, 2021, through June 30, 2022, the minimum wage rate is $8.75 per hour if the employee is offered qualifying health benefits, and $9.75 per hour if the employee is not offered qualifying health benefits.
Court: Employee's regular phone calls can impact status under FLSA
You may not think that a few small tasks can impact whether any of your employees are eligible for overtime pay. But be aware: Just a handful of phone calls that employees make in a workweek might affect how the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) applies to them.
...
That's according to the outcome of a recent ruling from the Eleventh Circuit in St. Elien v. All County Environmental Services .
In the case, an administrative assistant sued for overtime pay under the FLSA. However, the employer said the law didn't apply because it was a small business with only one location and didn't engage in any interstate commerce.

Rumors of the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is once again the target of rumors stating that it will increase its wafer prices. Previous rumors speculating the same change had surfaced in late January, in the wake of the ongoing chip crunch that automakers are currently facing.
Today's rumors, reported by United News , seem to apply to all tech products. TSMC manufactures semiconductors in two wafer sizes, namely the 12-inch and 9-inch wafers. Out of these, chips that are generally used in consumer electronics are manufactured on 12-inch silicon wafers, which are the subject of the reported price hikes.

Time for labor-allied lawmakers to stop congratulating themselves and come back to the table
When ESSB 5172 , a bill addressing retroactive pay in agriculture, passed out of the Senate in early March, Senate Democrats who hijacked the bill with amendments celebrated its passage as a supposed victory for farmworkers throughout our state.
They also acknowledged the bill still needed work. Yet, since moving to the House, the legislators who pledged to make the bill better have disappeared, the embodiment of all the negative clichés you hear about dishonest politicians and sneaky lawyers.

Southern California Restaurant Companies Cited for Wage Theft Violations Affecting 188 Workers,
March 29, 2021 - Van Nuys—The Labor Commissioner's Office has cited G & D Investments, Inc. dba Baja Fresh, 7 other legal entities and their CEOs $375,806 for wage theft violations affecting 188 workers. The Westlake Village-based corporations operated multiple Baja Fresh restaurants in the greater Los Angeles area where a group of cooks and cashiers had to work without proper pay.
The Labor Commissioner's Office found that the employers established a different corporation to run each restaurant but shared employees between locations. This resulted in employees working without proper pay for all hours worked, including overtime and double time. Workers were also not provided proper meal and rest breaks, and were not paid split shift premiums for working two shifts in a day.
