DOL Wage and Hour Division to No Longer Seek Liquidated Damages
On June 27, 2025, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) Wage and Hour Division (WHD) issued new field assistance indicating it will no longer seek liquidated damages in administrative matters against employers for unpaid minimum wage or overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The field assistance takes the position that the WHD is not authorized to seek liquidated damages unless it does so through a lawsuit.
