Changes in the rules that determine which employees are exempt from overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) took effect on August 23, 2004. Employers need to understand these changes thoroughly, because employees who were exempt from overtime before the changes might be non-exempt now, and vice-versa. The articles and tools linked below will serve as a guide, and will help help you audit your organization's jobs to determine whether they fall within the exempt or nonexempt categories of the FLSA's new regulations. As reported below, noncompliance with the new rules can prove very costly.
