U.S. Overtime laws changed, but how?

in #jobs8 years ago

I had a conversation with a friend about the fact that he was working 70-80 hour weeks but not getting paid overtime. I thought this was BS, but he said that his income was over the threshold. I think there are some misconceptions, so I started looking into it.

Found this video:

And some pages from the Dept. of Labor:
https://www.dol.gov/featured/overtime
https://blog.dol.gov/2016/05/18/plenty-of-options-with-new-overtime-rule/

So what IS the easiest way to explain all this to someone?
