☆ A flurry of new rules from the Biden administration attempt to ban noncompetes, boost overtime pay, and increase refunds for delayed flights
  + stars: | 2024-04-27 | by ( Juliana Kaplan | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Read previewThe Biden administration this week pushed out a slate of rules it says are meant to boost competitiveness and put more money into workers' pockets. There are already challenges to at least one of the rules — but together they could land overtime pay for millions more workers, ban noncompetes that prevent workers from moving into jobs in similar industries, and help people get automatic refunds for delayed or canceled flights. More workers eligible for overtime payUnder the Department of Labor's new rule, many workers who make under $43,888 will be eligible for overtime pay effective July 1. A ban on noncompetes that keep workers from taking new jobsPerhaps the most sweeping action for workers came from the Federal Trade Commission, which finalized a rule to ban noncompetes in most cases. Will a ban on noncompetes, new overtime thresholds, or airline refunds affect your life?

The number of gig workers is growing and making an impact throughout the economy. But workplace experts say the number of gig workers is growing, and and their impact is being felt throughout the economy. “People who have access to the gig economy borrow less money than people who don’t. Working in the gig economy can help people spend more time searching for their next job, if they've been laid off. “We could do so much better.”Recently, local governments have attempted to bolster platform gig workers’ protections.

Amazon, Dropbox and Lyft had the biggest layoffs in the tech industry for April. Google and Meta Platforms are responsible for the most tech layoffs since the pandemic, according to Layoffs.fyi. Look at WARN notices in your stateSo-called WARN notices can help workers figure out if layoffs are coming, Vivian Tu, a former trader turned influencer who goes by "Your Rich BFF," said in a March Instagram video. However, sometimes companies can avoid releasing these notices by spreading out the layoffs, said Susan Houseman, director of research for the W.E.

☆ Companies are using layoffs to cut new-hire salaries and win back the power they held before the pandemic, some recruiters say
  + stars: | 2023-02-12 | by ( Juliana Kaplan | Rebecca Knight | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +8 min

Tech companies scrambled to meet demand and went on a hiring binge during the pandemic. At a time when wages were climbing at the fastest pace in decades across the board, tech companies were especially generous to new hires — and even existing employees. A year and a half ago, compensation was a "completely different ball game," a former recruiter at Google told Insider. Will tech companies then try to hire back their workers at lower salaries?
