dol flsa regulations
The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) published monumental changes to the overtime rule that would make approximately 4.2 million currently exempt employees eligible for overtime pay. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime rule determines whether employees are eligible or exempt for overtime pay. Exempt employees, because of their rate of pay and type of work that they do, are not eligible for overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek.
