FLSA classifications for nursing care enterprises

System

How does FLSA look at the classifing of employees pertaing to the 8 & 80 and the 40 hr work week. Can the employer pick and choose what employees (by employee) fall into what catagory or must this be determined by job description or department?

Maybe I misunderstood......

Chris, it looks like you may need to get a useable understanding of FLSA. I suggest you go to the US Department of Labor website responsible for administering FLSA. It has an interactive program, called "eLaws Advisor", that will help answer and explain many FLSA issues. It's located at [url]http://www.dol.gov/elaws/flsa.htm[/url] You will find it helpful in answering some of the common questions about FLSA.

Good luck.
