Updating FLSA Threshold Exemption Field in HRS

Overview

This field is used when the employee’s job code is under a default threshold exemption job code regardless of the employee’s salary amount, and if the employee has multiple jobs and their primary job is exempt from FLSA regulations due to doctor, teacher, lawyer, or etc.

Process Considerations:

  • If employee has multiple active jobs all FLSA Statuses need to be reviewed. Determining the FLSA Status should be based off the primary job for the employee. One way to determine the primary job is the Benefits Primary indicator. Once the primary job is determined, then all other active job records MUST have the same FLSA Status.
  • If the employee’s job code is under a default threshold exemption job code, then the FLSA Threshold Exemption reason needs to be added in Job Data regardless of the employee’s salary amount.
  • If the employee is under the threshold amount AND the job code is not under a default threshold exemption job code, BUT, during the assessment, if it is believed the employee should be Exempt, then the FLSA Threshold Exemption reason needs to be added in Job Data for that job.
