You can be, it depends. Whether or not you are a salaried employee is something that you should know based on the way you get paid and your work schedule. If you get paid hourly, you are not a salaried employee.
Whether you are salaried depends on your job duties ... not on how often you get paid. All overtime exempt employees must be paid for full days. Still, one could work three or four days a week at a properly salaried exempt job and be a part-timer.

In most cases, a part-time employee cannot be forced to work full-time hours without their consent. Employers are generally required to abide by the terms of the employee's part-time contract. If the employer wants to make a change to the employee's working hours, they should discuss it with the employee and come to a mutual agreement.
my husband is a salaried employee and works an average of 65+ hours a week. Every other week he works 6 days which adds to that time. He is having to take 3 days off work in order to attend a custody hearing. Can his employer deduct this from his salary? Is that legal?
yes they can, hence "salary"
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.
Salaried employees can be compelled to work as many hours as it takes to complete assigned tasks. The base salary per day remains the same.
What is the maximum number of hours you can work and still be considered a part-time employee?
Yes they can. If it negatively impacts the employee's performance at their Full Time position, they can be disciplined or let go.
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.
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.
Yes, unless the employee has a signed contract.
The maximum number of work hours is 32 hours for a part-time employee.
