As more American employees join the ranks of telecommuters, class-action wage and hour lawsuits are on the rise:

• Cigna Healthcare of California is now facing a class-action lawsuit from home-based medical claim processors who allege they were unlawfully denied overtime and mileage compensation.
• A class action suit from pharmaceutical sales reps against Novartis (New York) is seeking overtime payments for hours spent working outside the office in excess of the 40 hour workweek.
• And California American Family Mutual Insurance is battling demands for overtime pay for hours worked outside the office.

Your managers can avoid expensive litigation by outlining the exact duties and hours of your remote workforce. Help your supervisors clearly spell out what is expected from your telecommuters and how to stay connected with your home-based talent by participating in the all-new HR Hero audio conference, The Offsite Workforce: New Risks and Realities for Supervisors.
