Exempt vs. non-exempt quick check

Is this role exempt or non-exempt?

The job title does not decide it. The duties and the salary do. Misclassifying an employee as exempt is one of the most common and expensive mistakes small companies make, and the quick check walks you through the test one decision at a time.

What you get

• The duties tests as a one-page decision tree.
• The current thresholds.
• The documentation to keep on file for each call.
• Free. Request it and it arrives by email.
