Preferred term

Fair Labor Standards Act  

Definition(s)

  • The distinction between exempt and nonexempt employees, a familiar dichotomy indicating exemption from certain federal labor regulations, was created through the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) of 1938. The act instituted many taken-for-granted characteristics of employment in the United States: the five-day workweek, the 40-hour workweek, and overtime pay. [Source: Encyclopedia of Career Development; Fair Labor Standards Act]
