NATA Asks Members To Weigh In on Labor Proposal
The proposal would more than double the threshold for workers eligible for mandatory overtime pay.

NATA is appealing to members to weigh in on a U.S. Department of Labor proposal that will update salary and compensation levels for workers entitled to minimum wage and overtime pay protections. Last updated in 2004, current regulations require employers to pay eligible employees overtime (time-and-a-half) for hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week. Eligible workers covered by these regulations make $23,660 or less per year, under current regulations. The proposal would more than double the threshold to cover workers that make $50,440 or less per year, NATA noted.
