To qualify for a federal exemption (other state regulations may apply), the employee must generally meet both the salary requirements and the applicable duties test, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/agencies\/whd\/fact-sheets\/17b-overtime-executive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">executive<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/agencies\/whd\/fact-sheets\/17c-overtime-administrative\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">administrative<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dol.gov\/agencies\/whd\/fact-sheets\/17d-overtime-professional\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">professional<\/a> exemption. For example, an employee with a supervisor title who primarily performs the same work as hourly employees and has limited management authority may still be entitled to overtime pay. Employers should carefully evaluate each position based on the employee&#8217;s actual job duties rather than their job title or pay method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"mailto:hr@employco.com\" data-type=\"mailto\" data-id=\"mailto:hr@employco.com\">Contact us<\/a> for assistance with your FLSA exemption evaluations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Schedule a <a href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/gwilson-employco\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">15-minute call<\/a> with <strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#046240\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Griffen Wilson<\/mark><\/strong> for more information on our services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: Are all supervisors and managers classified as exempt and salaried?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[31],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hr-newsletter"],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"Employco USA","author_link":"https:\/\/www.employco.com\/blog\/author\/employcousa\/"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
