Answer: A - Medical technologists at Redmond Pacific would qualify for professional white-collar exemptions.

Key Takeaway: White-collar exemptions can sometimes be difficult to define. Generally speaking, an employee who is eligible for the “professional” exemption is someone who is in a well-defined profession, usually one that is required to have an advanced degree or certification. Professional employees can also refer to those who perform creative work in the arts or music.
