Elyria Prepares FLSA Exemption Review For Supervisors
Elyria attorneys from Walter Haverfield review which city supervisors qualify as nonexempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Safety Service Director Mary Siwierka pushes Chapter 165 reforms while the April 10 Finance Committee agenda includes the matter. Attorney Susan Anderson uses job descriptions and a FLSA questionnaire to mark managers as exempt or nonexempt, with 1986 last evaluation. Council member Marcus Madison questions paying attorney fees for charter clarity, as Haverfield handles labor issues under contract negotiations. The distinction hinges on federal law to avoid potential lawsuits from misclassified employees.
