Quick Answer
This is most often related to exemption status or pay structure. If you are paid under a qualifying commission-based role and meet the 7(i) exemption criteria, overtime may not apply.

 

Common Reasons

  • You qualified for the 7(i) overtime exemption.

  • Your role is otherwise exempt from overtime under applicable law.

 

Important Reminder

Overtime eligibility is determined by law and pay structure, not solely by hours worked.
