Do Your Job Tasks Exempt You from Overtime Pay?
Being classified as a non-exempt employee can make a significant difference in your pay. Some companies misclassify employees as exempt, in order to avoid overtime pay and to save on labor costs.
The term "exempt" properly only applies to a limited number of employees in any company. Your job tasks determine whether your employer can classify you as exempt from overtime pay regulations, not the sign on your cubicle wall or the title on your business card.

But They Made You Sign an Employment Agreement, Right?
Misclassification as an exempt employee is illegal. Under California law, a worker cannot sign away certain legal rights in an employment agreement or waiver. Even if you have been working as a salaried employee for many years, and feel as if your rights to overtime pay have been violated, your employment contract or agreement may be illegal and void.
