Hrm 300 week 5 salary threshold legislation review

FLSA – On December 1st, the federal annual salary threshold for employees exempt form overtime pay will double, increasing from $47,476 from $23,660. Employees who make less than the threshold must be paid time-and-a-half for any hours worked beyond the 40-hour workweek.  Many employers will not be able to increase salaried employees’ pay to the new higher amount so those employees will become exempt.
