We are looking for Human Resources questions!
Please send us an email ([email protected]) with YOUR Human
Resources related question and we will select one or two of the submissions to use as a
topic of discussion in our next monthly meeting.
We always want to bring to you the topics that concern you. As a group we can
discuss and find best practices in our Human Resources community so that none of us
ever feel alone in trying to solve a problem. Often times….we know the answer
however the reassurance from other experts in the field is helpful as well.
Don’t forget to sign up for the 2014 Law and Legislative Conference…and invite a
friend too! Your Legal and Legislative Chair, Walt Lachenmayr, has poured his heart
and soul into this event as he does every year and we have a great line up of speakers
that I am sure will provide you with plenty of knowledge to conquer the Human
Resources world.
See you there!

Maryland’s Highest Court Holds That Employees May Recover Treble Damages for Unpaid OvertimeOn August 13 the Maryland Court of Appeals changed the damages award greater than what is now provided
under federal law and extended the back pay liability period from two to three years. The law also extends the
treble damages provision to cases involving misclassification. See the attached link to the Kohlman Saucier
blog for details: blog post
National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) Redefines Concerted Activity-In an August 11th ruling, the
