JER HR Group helps you determine exemption status, by job description.

For each position selected for FLSA review, JER HR Group will:

• Review the job description.
• Apply the appropriate FLSA exemption test(s) under current regulations.
  • Wages Test: Minimum pay threshold for overtime exemption. If pay is over the threshold, employee may be exempted from overtime in certain circumstances. Under the Wages Test, an employee must be eligible for overtime pay regardless of their rank or job duties.
  • Duties Test: As provided by the FLSA, the Department of Labor (DOL) enforces seven classes of potentially exempt workers, including Executive, Administrative, Creative and other exempt employees. Within each of these classes, an employee’s responsibilities and role within the broader organization are considered.
• Prepare a chart listing each position title reviewed, with recommendations for exemption status and comments relevant to the determination of the status for each job.
• Integrate the FLSA review results into the Salary Grade and Range Structure within a Compensation Plan. This includes reviewing the required qualifications, education and experience to ensure they are consistent with FLSA status; assess whether the FLSA status of jobs within an assigned Job Grade/Band is consistent or if there are outliers; and, if there are outliers, flag them to determine if jobs should be reclassified.
