  1. Payroll Updates and Review R & R in MT

  2. The New Hire • Exempt (teachers, executive, administrative, or professional) • These folks are “generally” salaried and do not receive overtime.

  3. The New Hire, cont’d • Non-exempt (Classified or hourly staff) • These folks (those making less than $47,476 per year or $913.00/ per week) would be paid overtime for any hours worked in excess of 40 hrs in a workweek. The new threshold effective date is 12/1/16.

  4. Certified employees are eligible for overtime compensation if performance of both coaching and teaching exceeds 40 hours in the workweek.

  5. False • If teachers are also coaching for you there is no concern regarding overtime. • There is concern however if you have a person coaching for you that is not a teacher or is not a district employee. • You may want to consider having all coaches keep a timecard. Just a thought.

  6. 2. If a person is hired as office manager and paid on a salary basis with main duties consisting of scheduling employees, bookkeeping and answering the phone, they do not need to be paid overtime.

  7. FALSE • This person would be classified as non-exempt. They don’t qualify under the “duties test”, administrative, professional, or executive. In short, they don’t make hiring/firing decisions, they don’t supervise employees, they don’t manage the facility, and they do not make over $47,476 per year.
