Question about meal breaks and exempt vs. non-exempt status. Please help?
I recently found out that I am a "non-exempt" employee, which means that I am entitled to over-time pay when I work overtime, and it also means that I have to work an 8 hour day, excluding my required 1 hour lunch break (totaling 9 hours.) This means I have to work from 8-5, or 8:30-5:30. I have no problems with working an 8 hour workday - but my exempt, full-time coworkers arrive every day around 8:00am, and go off for a 1 hour lunch break from time to time, and then leave the office around 3:30 or 4pm. This basically puts them at around 6 hour for the day. Is this fair? Is this even allowed?
