Knowledge Center
Welcome to the OHRO Knowledge Center.
Here, we break down complex HR and compliance topics — and how they impact your restaurant, your team, and your bottom line.
Harassment
Workplace harassment is one of the most significant legal risks for restaurant employers. Understanding your obligations — and acting on them — is the difference between protection and liability.
FLSA
The Fair Labor Standards Act governs minimum wage, overtime, and child labor rules for virtually every restaurant in the country. Violations are common — and expensive.
Exempt vs Non-Exempt
Misclassifying employees as exempt is one of the most costly wage-and-hour mistakes a restaurant can make. The salary alone does not determine status — the duties do.
Tip Sharing & Pooling
Tip pooling rules changed significantly under the 2018 FLSA amendments. Understanding who can participate — and who cannot — protects your business from costly wage claims.
Have a question about your situation? Don't guess.
