Employers are not legally required to pay overtime pay to what employee, according to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938?
  1. The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) in a health care facility
  2. Part time health care ancillary staff, such as lab techs
  3. Hospital employees who elect to work a 14, rather than a 7 day, workweek
  4. A registered nurse who intermittently performs the role of “charge nurse”
Explanation
Answer: A - Employers are not legally required to pay overtime pay to a Chief Financial Officer (CFO), according to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) in a health care facility does not have the right to overtime pay, according to the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, because a CFO, like the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Director of Nursing, is considered an executive and supervisor. As such, they are salaried employees and not entitled to overtime pay. Hospital employees who elect to work a 14, rather than 7 day, workweek may, under some circumstances, not be entitled to overtime pay but they are always entitled to the minimum wage.
