The Danville metropolitan area agribusiness industry accounted for an estimated $30.3 million in state and local government revenues in 2011. The total was approximately evenly distributed among state and local coffers with $15.0 million for state government and $15.3 for local governments. An estimated $6.8 million of the local government revenue impact accrues to Danville City as a result of agribusiness activity occurring within its boundary and $7.9 million to Pittsylvania County from activities within the county.

| Jun 30 DOL's New Overtime Rule |
Is your business or organization prepared for the changes in overtime that go into effect December 1, 2016?
On May 18, 2016 The Department of Labor’s (DOL) Wage and Hour Division published the final regulations governing which executive, administrative, and professional employees are entitled to the Fair Labor Standards Act’s minimum wage and overtime pay protections. Most salaried employees who do not make at least $47,476 will be affected by these changes and eligible for overtime compensation which could significantly impact your budget for the upcoming year.
Jennifer Burnett and Steven Gould, attorneys with Clement Wheatley, PC, will provide in-depth analysis of the proposed new FLSA overtime regulation provisions and practical tips on how to prepare for the changes. In addition, they will provide real-life scenarios and exemptions to the regulations.
Join us to determine how this change will affect your business, your employees, and your bottom line.
