Analyze Employee FLSA Exempt Status
Determining exemption status for most jobs is easy; it is the remaining few, the 5%, that typically
require in-depth analysis (and in which liability exists). Revised US Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
overtime regulations went into effect in August 2004 (the first significant changes since 1949). The
prose of the new regulations consists of pure job analysis; 14 "bright-line" questions/inputs are
required, including identification of a primary duty (but a full job description is not required).
Should determinations of large numbers of jobs be required, please consider an annual subscription to
PAQ's eDOT® - Professional edition software where infinite FLSA analyses may be completed.
eDOT, like this FLSA Report and analysis, contains only US FLSA job analyses measures (not State measures which
may vary).

How This FLSA Report Works:
The online Report estimates whether a job is exempt or non-exempt under US FLSA Regulations, based on that job's actual duties and work measures. Answer job analyses questions and receive US FLSA exempt and non-exempt scores for the following categories: Nonexempt, Executive, Administrative, Professional, Computer, and Sales. Some states also have their own regulations; these are noted (flagged) on the resulting Report but not estimated.
Each report has 3 parts/steps:
Step 1: Provides an estimate of US FLSA exemption by category, generating a score (> .50 = exempt) for each of the six FLSA exempt and non-exempt categories. The category receiving the highest score will be determinative. (Note: a position may be classified as "exempt" in more than one category.)
Step 2: Replicates the geographic and industry information provided at/as input. (This Report is based on US Federal FLSA regulations. Certain states and industries have special rules that apply. Contact your State Department of Labor Office to learn more.)
Step 3: Records the amount and form of compensation, as well as the threshold required, to qualify for FLSA exemption. (These thresholds vary by geographic location and industry. Again, this Report is based on US Federal FLSA income thresholds.)
Purchasers of this online Report typically use this FLSA exemption questionnaire for difficult-to-classify positions. Annual subscribers to PAQ's eDOT® - Professional edition software typically include those organizations creating many reports, often placing an FLSA report in each employee's file to provide documentation of his/her job's FLSA determination.
