Understanding and correctly classifying employee exemption status is crucial for compliance and fairness in your workplace. Misclassifying employees can lead to costly legal issues and employee dissatisfaction. That’s where Peopleish’s Exemption Status Audits come in. We help businesses ensure that all employees are classified correctly according to federal and state labor laws, so you can avoid legal pitfalls and maintain compliance with ease.

Why Exemption Status Audits Matter

Employee classification—whether someone is exempt or non-exempt—impacts overtime eligibility, pay rates, and job responsibilities. With ever-changing regulations, ensuring proper classification can be tricky. Misclassification not only exposes your business to penalties, but it can also hurt morale and employee trust. Our Exemption Status Audits provide you with peace of mind, knowing that your employees are properly classified, and your business is compliant with current wage and hour laws.
