The US Department of Labor has announced significant changes to the rules on overtime. One of the key changes is an increase in the salary threshold, which is one of the factors determining whether employees are eligible for overtime pay. The increase in the minimum salary level is substantial, and will likely result in many more employees, and even some executive directors, becoming eligible for overtime pay. In this episode of the PBPA Podcast, Max Bernas with Ford Harrison will answer our questions about the new overtime eligibility rules and share guidance for nonprofits to ensure timely compliance with the new rules.
Nonprofits provide valuable and often essential programs to support youth in their communities. While providing such services, nonprofits must maintain practices and procedures to prevent abuse and mistreatment of children. This article from Venable outlines ten important compliance strategies for nonprofits to consider for their youth programming and these articles from PBPA on Child Abuse Reporting and Summer Camps include Georgia-specific guidance.

Why UBIT is not a “Four Letter Word”
Generating income is a constant struggle for 501(c)(3) organizations. Revenue sources ebb and flow, so revenue source diversification is important. As a result, 501(c)(3)s often explore new ways to generate income. Some of these income ideas may generate unrelated business income which may be taxable. During this webcast, we will
- Define unrelated business income;
- Identify the risks of generating unrelated business income; and
- Discuss how 501(c)(3)s can generate additional income using the exceptions, exemptions, and modifications to unrelated business income rules.
