The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) sets guidelines for employers to determine whether employees are exempt from overtime. Overtime is time and a half of what an employee earns for every hour worked over 40 hours in a workweek. The FLSA salary threshold is the minimum salary employers must pay employees for them to be exempt from overtime wages. Beginning 1/1/2020, the threshold is $35,568 annually or $684 per week. There is an exception of UWMSN Job Code D80AN - Associate Lecturer, who must earn $33,568 annually or $649.12 per week. Anyone under the threshold must be eligible for overtime.
