Pay Practices
1. Failure to Pay employees for short Breaks
The Fair Labor Standards Act does not require employers to provide breaks to employees (although some state laws do). However, if you do provide short breaks (generally less than 20 minutes), you will be required to pay employees for this time.

6. lack of employee Handbook and Proper Job
Descriptions Employee Handbooks provide the road map for appropriate employee (and management) behavior. Similarly, proper job descriptions set forth the expectations of each position, including a list of tasks, responsibilities, required skills, and qualifications. Consistently following the policies and procedures contained in a well-drafted handbook can assist the employer in defending against claims brought by employees.
