Neither the FLSA nor the Department’s regulations provide an exemption from overtime requirements for non-profit organizations. Thus, the Final Rule may impact non-profit organizations having an annual dollar volume of sales or business done of at least $500,000, or those with employees individually covered by the FLSA.
