Managing Exempt vs. Non-Exempt Employees Under New Wage Laws

Overtime and minimum wage regulations have been contentious topics in recent years. In 2017, proposed legislation was stalled due to legal actions initiated by several states. However, new legislation was introduced on April 23, 2024, with updates taking effect as soon as July 1, 2024. These changes to salary thresholds require employers to make critical decisions regarding the management of their exempt workforce. Additionally, many states have updated their overtime rules to be more favorable to employees, adding to the complexity.

It will explain how to balance these regulations, ensuring employers accurately calculate overtime. Key topics will include minimum wage changes, legislative updates, and best practices for managing compliance with new requirements.
