Salaried employees who are exempt from the federal overtime law, must be paid for every DAY worked, not docked for hours missed, just days not worked.

If a salaried employee goes home sick and has worked for an hour do they need to use sick time to get paid for the day?
No, you should be compensated for the full day.
If you are a salaried non-exempt employee can your employer deduct partial days from your pay?
AnswerA non-exempt employee is an hourly paid employee. Therefore, he is paid according to the time he works; no more, no less. An exempt employee is a salaried employee who gets paid the same amount regardless of how much he might go over 40 hours in a week. As for if the exempt employee gets paid for taking off half a day, it depends on the wage and hour laws of the state. ************The information stated above is correct, however, it does not answer the specific question being asked. The above question is asking about a SALARIED NON-EXEMPT employee and not a SALARIED EXEMPT employee. There is a difference.Dealing only with non-exempt employees, yes, generally a non-exempt employee is an hourly paid employee who is paid for the actual hours they work. There can also be SALARIED FOR FIXED HOURS non-exempt employees and SALARIED FOR PARTIAL HOURS non-exempt employees. These positions are paid a set amount per week, with anything over 40 hours being paid time and a half. e.g. If they work 35 hours in a week they still get the full salary amount. If they work 42 hours in a week they get the full salary amount plus two hours overtime. The Department of Labor has a lot of information on these positions.If you are a salaried non-exempt employee, I do not believe your employer can deduct for partial days worked. If you miss work because of sickness, leave of absence or can't make it in, then a full day deduction may apply.
Are salary employees guaranteed their 40 hrs whether they work 30 or 80?
A salaried employee gets paid a fixed amount regardless of the number of hours worked. Such an employee is termed as "exempt" meaning they are exempt from laws that require overtime pay. Being salaried can be positive in that the base pay is typically higher that what an hourly worker would make but the downside is the potential for many long hours beyond 40. There are always tradeoffs.
What is the maximum hours employer can make you work if you are a salaried employee?
A salaried employee has the advantage of having special benefits, including bonuses, more time off and usually a lot more money. Unfortunately that also means a lot more work, usually as long as it takes to get the job done.
As a salaried employee, is there a limit to how many overtime hours can be worked in a week without overtime compensation Some of us make over $455 a week, others don't. Thank you for your time. This will squash a discussion that has become quite heated.?
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires that non-exempt employees be paid overtime for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. However, exempt employees who earn a salary of over $455 per week and meet certain job duties may not be entitled to overtime pay. It is important to consult your employment contract or the FLSA regulations to determine if you fall under the exempt or non-exempt category.
How many hours do social workers work per week?
At the BSW level it will depend partially if you are hired on an hourly wage or as a salaried employee (also will depend a bit on what state you live in). As an hourly employee you would be required to work 40 hours and if you worked more you would get over-time. If you are salaried you are not entitled to overtime (though some organizations will give comp time). You are payed to get a job done and if that requires you to work overtime then that is what you are expected to do. So it is less about what area you work in and more about what type of employee you are. I've seen government employees put in 60+ hours and mental health folks put in 40.

What is an exempt and non exempt employee?
Exempt employees are 'exempt' from federal overtime rules and regulations, based on specific qualifications put forth by FLSA rules. (Executives, professionals, etc.) Non-Exempt employees are paid by the hour, and are subject to federal overtime rules (time and a half, for all hours worked over 40 in a pay week.) All hourly employees are non-exempt, all exempt employees are salaried, but not all salaried employees are exempt. Salaried employees must pass specific FLSA criteria to be categorized as 'Exempt', and therefore exempt from overtime rules.
How do you claim your house if you have not worked?

Employer breaks up overtime pay by giving extra hours of regular pay and preimum pay then same amount of extra hours with half my pay rate but then counts half time pay as hours worked?
No. An employer can not pay an employee half time unless the following requirements are met: 1. the employee's hours must fluctuate from week to week;2. the employee must be salaried and be paid the same each week regardless of the number of hours that the employee works during the week;3. the fixed amount must be sufficient to provide compensation at a regular rate not less than the legal minimum wage.4. the employer and the employee must have a clear, mutual understanding that the employer will pay the employee the fixed weekly salary regardless of the hours worked; and5. the employee must receive a fifty percent overtime premium in addition to the fixed weekly salary for all hours that the employee works in excess of forty during that week. If the employers often do not follow all of the requirements of this method and their employees are still owed time and one-half for all hours worked over 40 hours.
