Comment on This very important strike you probably haven't heard of has now been going on for about 6 months
bdonvr@thelemmy.club 6 months agoYeah but I am driving a 53’ semi and could reasonably be asked to go across state lines so I would still be exempt.
(generally us office staff would only cover shorter stuff if a driver calls out, but it could reasonably happen)

The last time I looked into the salary exempt restrictions it had to be your primary job for the exemption to apply, if you are averaging most of your work time not doing exempt things you should file a complaint, worst case scenario is they say ‘yea tough shit it’s exempt’

Seems pretty clear cut unfortunately. “Employees performing such duties meet the duties requirement of the exemption regardless of the proportion of “safety affecting activities” performed”
