Travel Time

Determining when and how much to pay employees for their travel and commuting time is a complex subject, governed by regulations promulgated by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Employers need to know what is considered working time when employees are traveling; how to deal with weekend time that may combine business and personal travel; and how to handle requests for travel reimbursements when company vehicles are used for "commuting."
