Lady Gaga & the FLSA: A bad romance - Business Management Daily

The former personal assistant to Lady Gaga was ?figuratively, if not literally, always at (Gaga?s) side? and ?on duty during all hours of each 24-hour day with no entitlement to breaks ? or, at times, even sleep.? The assistant was even responsible for ?ensuring the promptness of a towel following a shower.?

The problem, as the assistant?s lawsuit claims, is that Lady Gaga failed to pay her overtime. Now, she says, she?s owed hundreds of thousands of dollars.? ?

The lesson: Paying someone a salary doesn?t automatically make them exempt from the FLSA and overtime laws. Look at the duties and compare them to our Exempt vs. Nonexempt Checklist.
