Virginia Passes Overtime Wage Act | Smith, Gambrell & Russell, LLP

To embed, copy and paste the code into your website or blog: On March 20, 2021, Governor Ralph Northam signed the Virginia Overtime Wage Act into law.  Beginning on July 1, 2021, the Virginia Overtime Wage Act (“VOWA”) will go into effect resulting in new overtime rules far broader than the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”).  The VOWA contains provisions significantly different than the FLSA that require immediate attention of Virginian employers. Most notably, the VOWA expands FLSA provisions by changing the regular rate calculations for workers, providing larger damages for misclassified workers, extending the statute of limitations for overtime claims, and expanding liquidated damages for overtime violations.

Virginia s Overtime Wage Law Enacted

Wednesday, April 7, 2021 Beginning July 1, 2021, Virginia employers will be subject to new state overtime pay requirements. Virginia Governor Ralph Northam signed into law the Virginia Overtime Wage Act on March 31, 2021. Previously, Virginia had been content to rely on the overtime pay requirements of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). While they differ in certain respects, as with the FLSA, the Virginia Overtime Wage Act obligates employers to pay one and one-half times an employee’s regular rate of pay for hours worked in excess of 40 in a workweek. Departures from the federal law include how the regular rate of pay is calculated, a longer statute of limitations to bring potential claims, and the possible damages available.
