Restore federal overtime standards to where they were in 1975. This would cover up to 65% of salaried workers (as it did in 1975). The equivalent salary threshold would be $69,000. In other words, if you make an annual salary less than $69,000, you would be eligible for overtime pay.
In addition, the current exemptions from overtime should be narrowed rather than expanded. Today, overtime exemptions other than for those who make $23,360 annually; extend to teachers, federal employees, doctors, computer professional (anyone who uses a computer), and a slew of job descriptions that include the word "professional."
Exemptions should make business sense. Good business is paying your employees equitably. The President can make this happen with a stroke of his pen. H.T. to Nick Hanauer.
