Why Many Businesses Misclassify Employees as Exempt Employees And Fail To Pay Them Correctly
Many businesses operate on very tight profit margins and are always looking for ways to cut costs.
One of the biggest expenses for most businesses is employee pay.
As a result, many businesses classify employees as exempt salaried or exempt hourly employees to have them work over 40 hours a week without overtime pay.
Some businesses “promote” their employees to managers, supervisors, assistant managers, or other job titles or put their hourly employees on a salary and claim they are exempt from receiving overtime pay and benefits.
Some of them misclassify employees intentionally to cut costs.
Others do this because they simply don’t put enough thought into ensuring that employees are getting paid for all of the work they do.
Every year many salaried employees are misclassified as exempt employees and are paid less than they deserve.
Misclassifying employees as exempt salaried employees is viewed as unlawfully withholding benefits and protections from workers who qualify for them.
It may also be viewed as a deliberate attempt to avoid paying the correct hourly wages and overtime pay employees should be paid.
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires that most employees who work more than 40 hours a week receive overtime pay and be entitled to all benefits of the law.
