Proposed Rule on Overtime Pay Would Cover Millions More Workers

It would extend overtime pay to an additional 3.6 million salaried white-collar workers

The Biden administration unveiled a new rule Wednesday to extend overtime pay to an additional 3.6 million salaried white-collar workers in the United States.

While most hourly workers are entitled to overtime pay, non-hourly workers in executive, administrative and professional roles — including some supervisors — are exempt unless they make less than $35,568 a year.

The Labor Department’s proposed rule would guarantee overtime pay for far more non-hourly workers, raising the threshold to benefit such workers earning less than $55,000 a year.
