Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes federal minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and child labor standards for both full-time and part-time workers in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments. The FLSA also determines which employees are eligible for overtime pay by distinguishing between nonexempt employees (who are entitled to overtime pay) and exempt employees (who are not entitled to overtime pay). Therefore, the classification of employees as nonexempt or exempt is a basis for determining compensation and is governed by the FLSA. The other options (A, C, and D) are not directly related to the classification of employees as exempt or nonexempt under the FLSA.
