Summary
The bill changes the Fair Labor Standards Act so that executives, administrators and professionals must earn a minimum salary to be exempt from overtime pay. The floor starts at $45,000 and climbs each year, eventually tying to the 55th percentile of full‑time salaried earnings with automatic annual updates. It also limits the amount of non‑exempt work these employees can perform.
