An Act to Raise the Salary Threshold for Overtime Pay
This bill updates the rules for when a salaried employee in Maine is exempt from minimum wage and overtime pay laws. It adds the federal overtime salary threshold of $58,656 per year and a percentage of weekly earnings for full-time workers to the existing compensation requirements. This means more salaried employees could become eligible for overtime pay if their salaries fall below these new thresholds.
