What does the term “nonexempt” mean?
“Nonexempt” employees are covered by the overtime provisions of the FLSA and must record each hour worked on the time record. If the employee works more than 40 hours in one workweek, the employee is paid a premium of time and one-half, whether in pay or in accrual of compensatory time. Nonexempt employees are paid on a bi-weekly basis.
