Exempt employees are workers who are exempt from certain provisions of labor laws, particularly those related to overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). These employees typically receive a salary rather than hourly wages and are expected to perform specific job duties that place them in a professional or managerial category, allowing employers not to pay them overtime for hours worked beyond the standard 40-hour workweek.
