Being a salaried employee MAY make you exempt from (not qualify for) overtime. To be exempt from overtime, three conditions must be met:1) You are paid an annual salary (same amount every pay period regardless of hours), not an hourly wage based on number of hours worked.2) Your salary is at least $455 per week, or $23,660 per year.3) Your job description, responsibilities, and authority meets the criteria for at least one of the overtime "exemptions" which you can find on the U.S. Dept. of Labor website, like the Administrative exemption or Executive (which should be called "managerial," since it applies to non-executive managers, too) exemption. Go to the website and compare your job to the several exemptions.If all three conditions above are met, you are not paid overtime. If, however, even one of the conditions is not met (e.g. your salary is too low, or you don't meet at least one exemption), then you must be paid overtime (extra pay when working more than 40 hours per week) despite being salaried.If you think you should be paid overtime, contact the state or federal dept. of labor to file a complaint.
