Exempt employees are typically salaried workers who do not qualify for overtime pay, often holding professional or managerial roles. Non-exempt employees are usually paid hourly and are eligible for overtime compensation when working beyond standard hours. Understanding these differences helps ensure compliance with labor laws and proper classification of employees.

Can you give me an example of an exempt employee?

An exempt employee is a worker who is exempt from overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act, typically earning a salary and performing executive, administrative, professional, or outside sales duties. These employees usually have specialized skills, higher education, or managerial responsibilities and are paid on a salary basis rather than hourly. For example, a salaried manager or a licensed professional such as an engineer or accountant often qualifies as an exempt employee.

Do exempt employees have to work 40 hours a week?

Exempt employees, including many salaried workers, are not required to work a specific 40-hour week and often have flexible schedules. Their pay is not based on hours worked but on fulfilling job responsibilities, and they may work more or fewer hours depending on the role and employer expectations.

Is an exempt employee position good?

An exempt employee position typically offers a fixed salary and does not qualify for overtime pay, often requiring a higher level of responsibility or specialized skills. These roles may provide more predictable schedules but can involve longer hours and less flexibility. Whether it is a good position depends on individual career goals and work preferences.

What jobs are considered exempt?

Exempt jobs typically include executive, administrative, professional, and certain computer-related roles that meet specific salary and duties tests under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). These positions usually involve higher-level responsibilities, decision-making authority, and often require specialized skills or education, and they are not eligible for overtime pay.

Job description

Office Manager

Valdosta, GA | Full-Time | Exempt | Mon–Fri, Office Hours

Sunset Farm Foods, Inc. is a fourth-generation, family-owned meat processing and sausage company in Valdosta, Georgia, in business since 1918. We're looking for an experienced, detail-driven leader to oversee our office, payroll, and financial support operations — someone who can manage a team, keep AR/AP and payroll running smoothly, and coordinate accurate inventory tracking across our office, production, and shipping departments.

What You'll Do
  • Supervise the Assistant Office Manager and AR/AP staff, and oversee daily office operations.
  • Manage and administer payroll, including special handling for DOT-regulated drivers.
  • Support monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting and reconciliations.
  • Oversee production and shipping inventory tracking, resolving discrepancies as they arise.
  • Manage IRP/IFTA filings, fuel tax reporting, and related compliance documentation.
  • Support the HR Manager with AAP coordination and employee documentation.
  • Coordinate across plant operations, corporate staff, and leadership to keep the business running smoothly.
What You Bring
  • Bachelor's degree preferred (Business, Accounting, Finance, or related field).
  • 5+ years of Office Management, Accounting, Payroll, or administrative leadership experience.
  • Manufacturing, inventory, or multi-department operational experience preferred.
  • Experience with ADP or similar payroll systems.
  • Strong leadership, organizational, and financial accuracy skills.
  • High attention to detail and confidentiality.
Why Sunset Farm Foods?

We're a family-owned company that treats our team like family. Enjoy a stable, century-old local employer and a leadership role where your organization and follow-through genuinely keep the business running.
