Calzoni Boating Co. is an interstate business engaged in manufacturing and selling boats. The company has five hundred nonunion employees. Representatives of these employees are requesting a four-day, ten-hours-per-day workweek, and Calzoni is concerned that this would require paying time and a half after eight hours per day. Will the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) in fact require paying time and a half for all hours worked over eight hours per day if the employees’ proposal is accepted??

How do I respond to this in 100 words? Mujtaba (2010; as cited in Muffler et al., 2010) states that disparate treatment involves an employer who intentionally treats applicants or employees less favorably than others based on one of the protected classes of color, race, sex, religion, or national origin. It is the core constitutional violation against which the U.S. Equal Protection Clause guards (Hellman, 2024, pg. 206). In light of disparate treatment cases, employers should be sure to document their reasoning for their employment decisions for a variety of reasons. One reason being to maintain legal compliance. There are laws in place that protect employees from employment discrimination, such as the Civil Rights Act of 1991, Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, and Executive Orders 11246 and 11375 (Holley et al., 2017).

A former Google worker sued the tech giant and the online staffing firm oDesk (now part of Upwork, a global freelancing platform) alleging that he and others were misclassified as independent contractors rather than Google employees. According to the suit, the employee was paid as an independent contractor through oDesk and assigned projects that were impossible for him to complete in the maximum 30 hours per week that he was authorized to bill. This forced him to work additional hours on his own time, without the benefit of overtime pay to which he was legally entitled to under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Google also provided the worker with a mobile phone, tablet, and laptop computer while he worked at Google offices in New York. Google further required that the worker use Google proprietary software and conform to the employee code of conduct in regards to absenteeism, blogging, and dress code. The worker complained about nonpayment of the additional work hours and attempted to…
