Based on FLSA regulation, non-exempt employees are entitled to receive overtime pay or time off for all hours worked beyond 40 hours per week. Overtime is calculated based on time and a half of the employee\u2019s regular hourly rate, or time and a half of the time worked beyond 40 hours. Exempt employees are not eligible to receive overtime pay or time off.      <\/p> <\/p>What does \u201cnon-exempt\u201d mean? <\/strong><\/p>According to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), non-exempt is a job category in which employees must receive overtime or compensatory time when they work more than 40 hours in a work week. Employers must abide by that federal law, which is enforced by the U.S. Department of Labor. The FLSA designates which jobs are \u201cexempt\u201d from overtime compensation based on minimum salary levels and job duties. Employers must follow the FLSA\u2019s guidelines in creating both non-exempt and exempt jobs. The law requires that non-exempt employees receive overtime pay or compensatory time off for all hours worked over 40 in a work week. Overtime pay must be at a rate of 1.5 times the employee\u2019s regular rate of pay. Compensatory time off must be at a rate of 1.5 hours of compensatory time for each hour of overtime work. <\/p> <\/p>What is the process for an employee to request a salary review? <\/strong><\/p>All requests for salary reviews must first be approved by the direct Manager and Department Chief for Central Office employees. Official requests for such reviews must be received from the direct Manager via email to the Office of Compensation. <\/p> <\/p>My employment began after the start of the current fiscal year. Why isn't my paycheck\/HRIS record reflecting my full annual base pay amount?  <\/strong><\/p>At the time of start, your salary may be prorated based on the number of days you will actually be employed during the current fiscal year as a new hire or as an incumbent in a new role. The fiscal year begins on 7\/1; therefore, if an employee begins after this date, his or her salary will be reflected as the remaining balance of the total base salary that he or she will receive for the remainder of that fiscal year. <\/p> <\/p>How is my salary determined when transitioning from a teacher or school-based position to Central Office? <\/strong><\/p>To determine the pay rate for an individual moving from a teaching\/administrator position to a classified position, HR Compensation will use the following process:<\/p><ul><li>Assess minimum qualifications for the classified position<\/li><li>Review candidate\u2019s education and experience<\/li><li>Determine appropriate years of experience for recognition based on relevancy of the experience<\/li><li>Set pay within the appropriate pay range according to recognized experience and a review of the budget and internal equity<\/li><\/ul>Is the District offering hazardous pay? <\/strong><\/p>No, the district is not offering hazardous pay. <\/p> <\/p>I did not receive a stipend for which I believe I am eligible for. Who do I contact?<\/strong><\/p>For stipends or other supplements administered by the school, please contact the school's Financial Secretary. For any supplements administered by a Central Office designee, you may contact the Department Executive\/Administrative Assistant. <\/p> <\/p>My vacation accrual is not accurate. Who do I contact? <\/strong><\/p>Please contact the HR Employee Services Office at HREmployeeServices@scsk12.org.<\/p> <\/p>Who do I contact regarding my step increase\/annual base salary increase? <\/strong><\/p>Step\/pay increases are not automatic and are instead dependent upon an annual review of available funding and other factors. Decisions regarding pay increases will be announced annually after final consideration. <\/p> <\/p>I am contemplating obtaining my National Board Certification.

We are the second largest employer in Memphis-Shelby County with over 14,000 employees, including 6,500 teachers.
