Last week, the U.S. Department of Labor ("DOL") issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking that would allow millions of additional workers to receive overtime compensation. In particular, under the current law, administrative employees that earn at least $455 per week are not entitled to overtime compensation. Section 12(a)(1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 provides an exemption from both minimum wage and overtime pay for such employees.
