Wage and Hour Exemptions
Employees may be exempt from wage and hour laws based on criteria associated with their salary, actual duties, and skills. Exempt employees neither receive overtime pay nor qualify for minimum wage. Minnesota labor law defines these exemptions based on Executive, Administrative, or Professional status. Learn more here.
Minnesota Labor Law Poster Updates
All businesses within the State of Minnesota must display the new “Employer Sponsored Meetings” and “Minimum Wage” posters along with other state-mandated posting requirements where they are sufficiently accessible and viewable to all employees. These changes will be available in our 2025 Minnesota Labor Law Poster and require an immediate mandatory update. Failure to meet compliance requirements and display the updated posters could result in fines.
