Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) are generally classified as non-exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), meaning they are entitled to overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a week. However, certain circumstances, such as specific job duties or work settings, could lead to a reclassification. It's essential for employers to assess the specific roles and responsibilities of LPNs in their organization to determine the appropriate classification. Always consult legal or HR professionals for tailored advice.
