DAS released General Letter #204 revised - Dual Employment May 12th, 2014. General Letter #204 effectively limited or prevented most A&R employees from obtaining dual employment with the state. The General Letter was in response to a change in interpretation by United States Department of Labor of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). After many discussions at both the State and Federal levels, DAS has revisited its approach to General Letter #204.
Up to date Information regarding the Rowland Layoffs settlement can be found at the website of Silver, Golub and Teitell, where a SEBAC Class Action Home Page has been established.
