Ep. 6 Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) Nonexempt vs. Exempt Employee

Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) Nonexempt vs. Exempt Employee

Last week, Yaussy and Karen shared how important it is to identify the difference between Employee vs. Independent Contractor and the penalties that go along with that.  Classifying your employees are just as important and the penalties are just as big!  An Exempt Employee must fit into one of the following Exemptions:  Executive, Administrative, Professional, Outside Sales, Computer Employees, Creative Professional and Highly Compensated.  In addition, the Duties Test must be met under each Exemption.
