The United States Department of Labor and the Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General continue to target the industry for compliance audits and have emphasized the use of stiffer penalties (such as multiple damages and civil monetary penalties) when enforcing wage and hour laws. Immigration compliance\, including the engagement of seasonal workers\, continues to evolve. \nOn Tuesday\, May 5\, 2026 the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce will sponsor an important and informative event designed to provide our membership with all of the tools necessary to comply with seasonal immigration and wage and hour laws. The event will be a hybrid event available via Teams or in person commencing at 9:00 a.m. The event will take place and be broadcast from the CCCC offices\, 5 Patti Page Way\, Centerville. Topics to be addressed include: \n\n\nTraversing the seasonal worker immigration compliance landscape;\nHow to comply with both federal and state wage laws (and why employers must do both);\nHow to avoid common\, but potentially crippling\, mistakes in calculating and paying minimum wage and overtime;\nCompliance with the Massachusetts and Federal Tipping Law;\nThe proper categorization of workers – exempt v. non-exempt and contractors v. employees;\nCommon mistakes in the hospitality industry;\nPersonal liability\, multiple damages and attorneys’ fees exposure under Massachusetts and federal law; and\,\nWhat you should do if faced with a government audit or threatened litigation.\n\nTHIS IS THE ONLY SEMINAR ON CAPE COD THIS SPRING FOCUSED ON CAPE COD BUSINESSES AND FEATURING A SPEAKER FROM THE GOVERNMENT AGENCY CHARGED WITH ENFORCING THESE LAWS! \n\nOur panel of experts includes: \nThomas Carroll                                  John F.
