Production Line Workers Entitled to Overtime

Production Line Workers duties vary depending on the industry in which the employee works but workers who mostly perform work involving repetitive operations with their hands, physical skill are non-exempt. The exemptions in FLSA do not apply to manual laborers or other "blue-collar" workers. Blue collar workers would include production line workers who perform repetitive operations with their hands, physical skill and energy, and as a result gain the skills and knowledge required for performance of their work through apprenticeships and/or on-the-job training.
