Non-exempt employees are covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The Act sets out the status requirements for employees. Status is dependent on what kinds of duty the employee performs in the course of his or her job. Non-exempt employees are entitled to overtime payment if they work longer than a 40-hour week.
