Am I Entitled to Overtime Pay if I am on Salary

Maybe.

Just because your employer pays you a salary does not necessarily mean you are ineligible for overtime.  In other words, you may be entitled to receive overtime even if your employer tells you that you are not.

Whether or not an employee is entitled to overtime depends on the following factors:

• First, you must make at least $455 per week. 
• Next, you must be treated like a salaried employee – you cannot get docked for working less in a given week.  You must get paid the same every week, no matter what.
• Finally, there is the nature of the work you do.  The more responsibility (and less supervision) you have, the more likely it is that you are not entitled to overtime.  And vice versa.
