Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, nonexempt workers are generally those who do not perform exempt duties and are not paid salaries of at least $684 per week. Retail clerks are typically nonexempt because they do not perform exempt duties, such as management or professional work, and are typically paid hourly wages. The other options - a manager, an independent contractor, and a tenured professor - could potentially be exempt from FLSA requirements depending on their specific job duties and compensation.
