This legal template is a questionnaire designed to assess the exempt status of employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) in the United States. The FLSA is a federal law that sets basic employment standards, including minimum wage, overtime pay, and regulations regarding employee classification as exempt or non-exempt. Generally, certain employees who meet specific criteria, such as earning above a certain salary threshold and performing specific job duties, may be exempt from certain FLSA protections, including overtime pay. This questionnaire aims to gather relevant information from employees to evaluate their eligibility for exemption under FLSA guidelines. It likely includes detailed inquiries about the employee's job duties, salary or compensation, working hours, and other factors that determine their exempt status. This template is useful for employers to ensure compliance with FLSA regulations and accurately classify employees under the law.
