I think what's missing from the comp time thread is the definition of an exempt employee v. one that is nonexempt. I found a few pieces on the web you may also want to read concerning the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). This is a Federal law and not one that is state specific. http://www.ppspublishers.com/articles/court_rejects_deductions.htm http://www.ahipubs.com/FAQ/payroll/exempt.html http://www.execpc.com/~hrgroup/exempt.html http://www.toolkit.cch.com/text/P05_4127.asp http://votech.tqn.com/library/glossary/bldef-nonexempt.htm If you work for a federal institution, you may want to examine this one: http://www.opm.gov/oca/pay/HTML/COMP.htm There is also a for-fee checklist on figuring out if someone should be considered exempt for less than $10 to be found here: http://www.fairmeasures.com/pcm_oecl.html Are you an ED or Board member without solid policies and overwhelmed at the thought of having to create them? There is a site online that offers free downloads of many of those required for $97: http://www.instanthrpolicies.com/about_instanthr.htm If you want to read the actual governmental rules concerning the FLSA, here's the site: http://www.opm.gov/flsa/law.htm#law ===== Indigo Nights [log in to unmask] Looking for a job?
