Payments provided to employees for food—as long as they are reasonable and for the employer’s benefit—do not need to be counted as wages when calculating overtime, a federal appeals court has ruled. While the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires that some compensation—on-call pay, certain bonuses, meal expenses not incurred for the employer’s benefit, and others—be considered part of an employee’s “regular rate of pay,” other meal per diems don’t fall into that category, the 10th U.S.

This raises interesting questions, like how do you know if you’re an introvert? What are the most effective ways to coach introverts? What kind of work environments will help both introverts and extroverts thrive?

We know that such rewards, tied to tenure or sporadically bestowed on an individual employee for a job well done, fall short of achieving any larger goal. For employees, they do little to spur a sense of being truly valued by an organization.
