DOL Again Proposes New Salary Requirement for Exempt Employees
Posted by Rick Mahrle
The Department of Labor (“DOL”) has proposed a new federal overtime rule that would raise the salary requirement for workers who qualify for the white-collar exemptions. The required salary would be raised from $23,660 to $35,308 per year ($679 a week).
If this feels like déjà vu, there is good reason. In 2016, the DOL approved a rule increasing the salary threshold to $47,476. That rule was blocked by a court in Texas. As a result of the Texas court’s 2016 ruling, the salary requirement remained at $23,660 per year ($455 per week).
