Being paid on a “salary basis” means an employee regularly receives a predetermined amount of compensation each pay period. This can be on a weekly, or less frequent, basis. The predetermined amount cannot be reduced because of variations in the quality or quantity of the employee’s work. An exempt employee must receive the full salary for any week in which they perform any work, regardless of the number of days or hours worked.
