As I understand it, it also specifies hourly employees, which the original definition of "professional" didn't.

- anigbrowl 15y agoYes it did, see sec. 213(a)(17) at the link above. It defines them as professional, which is new, but they were already exempted if they made more than $28 an hour (which threshold hasn't changed).
- MPSimmons 15y agoSo after spending a cozy hour reading law, what they're doing is broadening the number of people who are exempted from being paid overtime to include more IT workers, but still only those who make more than $27.63/hour (which is, apparently, a lot).
