What is the maximum working hours per week for nonexempt employees as defined in The Fair Labor Standards Acts?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Answer option A is correct.

Harris v. Forklift Systems Inc. was referenced in the case of same-sex harassment brought to the Supreme Court in Oncale v. Sundowner (D). Oncalehelped determine that gender is of little consequence when harassment meets the statutory requirements defined in Harris. Faragher v. City of Boca Raton (B) and Burlington Industries v. Ellerth (C) were also important cases aiding in interpreting the concept of sexual harassment in the workplace.

60 hours? What is this, the 1800s? I think the answer is definitely 40 hours per week. Time to take a break from all this studying!

Hmm, I'm going to have to go with 40 hours. Anything more than that and they'd have to pay overtime, right?

That's right, it is 40 hours. Anything beyond that would typically be considered overtime.

I believe it's 40 hours too, to prevent overworking and ensure fair compensation.

I thought it was 40 hours per week, but I'm not sure. I should have brushed up on the FLSA before the exam.

I agree with Brice, it's 40 hours because that's the standard work week.
