Department of Labor (DOL): The United States Department of Labor is a cabinet-level department of the U.S. federal government responsible for occupational safety, wage and hour standards, unemployment insurance benefits, reemployment services, and some economic statistics; many U.S. states also have such departments.

Duties Test : A duties test is used to determine whether employees earning more than the salary threshold must be classified as nonexempt from overtime, including the tests for meeting the executive, administrative and professional exemptions

Exempt : Exempt employee is a term that refers to a category of employees set out in the Fair Labor Standards Act. They do not receive overtime pay, nor do they qualify for the minimum wage

Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA): The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 29 U.S.C. § 203 is a United States labor law that creates the right to a minimum wage, and "time-and-a-half" overtime pay when people work over forty hours a week. It also prohibits most employment of minors in "oppressive child labor".

Non-Discretionary Bonuses: A non-discretionary bonus is a bonus that the employee is expected to be paid and it is usually given at the same time, either monthly, quarterly or annually. Because these bonuses are agreed upon ahead of time, they must be included in the regular rate of pay and the calculation of overtime.

Non-exempt: Non-exempt employees are workers who are entitled to earn the federal minimum wage for every hour they work. Such workers likewise qualify for overtime pay, which is calculated as one-and-a-half times their hourly rate, for every hour they work, above and beyond a standard 40-hour workweek.

Overtime: Overtime is time and a half of what an employee earns for every hour worked over 40 in a workweek. The FLSA salary threshold is the minimum salary employers must pay employees for them to be exempt from overtime wages.

Salary Threshold: The FLSA salary threshold is the minimum salary employers must pay employees for them to be exempt from overtime wages. Beginning January 1, 2020, the salary threshold increases, making a number of previously exempt employees nonexempt. The new FLSA salary threshold is $35,568 annually or $684 per week.

Tipped Employee: Any employee working in an occupation in which he or she regularly receives more than $30 a month in tips is considered a tipped employee. Minimum Hourly Cash Wages for Tipped Employees Under Minimum Wage Laws. A listing of wage and tip amounts required to be paid to tipped employees as determined by state law.
