Unless I misread the laws regarding this, in CA at least you still have to earn ~$40/hr or more (it varies and last I read it was lowered a few $s) or more to be considered exempt, regardless of your job title
When I was a manager out thee some years ago, you also had to have substantial control over your activities.
Yes, and it has to be of a special "intellectual" nature (for lack of better terms). I would think just a fancy job title, but no duties to reflect it, would not stand a chance at all if the employee would legally challenge their supposedly exempt status. Anyways, http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/Glossary.asp?Button1=E#employee%20in%20the%20comp... explains it fairly well. "The employee's hourly rate of pay is not less than $41.00 [the rate in effect on September 19, 2000]". The rate according to their provided pdf is not less than $37.94 or not less than $79050.- annually. Regards, Jeroen
