In regards to the recently adopted Department of Labor regulations, Mr. English explains, "This litigation is ongoing—the ruling is on appeal—and many employers have adopted a wait-and-see approach to reclassifying workers as overtime-eligible. The advent of the new administration may well result in the proposed regulations being watered down or altogether scrapped."
