Are You an Administratively Exempt Employee?

This episode of Big Blend Radio's California Employment Law Podcast, featuring San Diego attorney Ward Heinrichs, observes National Administrative Professionals Day and Administrative Professionals Week by diving into a crucial workplace topic: Are You an Administratively Exempt Employee? Exempt employees are typically those who receive a minimum required salary and perform specific duties as defined by state and/or federal law. If both salary and duty requirements are met, employers are generally not obligated to pay overtime or provide meal and rest breaks that are required for non-exempt employees. Ward breaks down how administrative exemptions work, common pitfalls in employee classification, and how both workers and employers can ensure compliance with California labor laws. 📖 Learn more by reading Ward's article here: https://blendradioandtv.com/listing/are-you-an-administratively-exempt-employee/  👨‍⚖️ About Ward Heinrichs: Based in San Diego, California, Ward represents both employers and employees across nearly all areas of labor and employment law. 🔗 More about Ward:  http://bestemploymentattorneysandiego.com/  🎧 Ward Heinrichs joins Big Blend Radio every 4th Wednesday. 📺 Follow his podcast appearances here: https://ward-heinrichs-employment-law.podbean.com/  🔊This episode is also available on Big Blend Radio’s "Success Express" and "Big Daily Blend" podcast channels.  Explore our full network of shows: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/bigblendradionetwork
