Exemption Status

The exemption status field lists the employee's exemption status. Reach out to your HR or Legal team to review the Department of Labor definition and standards for exemption status.

The information in this article applies to accounts using uAttend Payroll. Updating this field will be reflected in payroll.

For accounts not using uAttend payroll, this reference-only field and does not impact any other settings.

Notes:

• Supervisors can be configured with permissions to view and/or edit employees.  Their responsibility can also be limited to certain departments, thereby limiting which employee profiles they can access.

To configure the exemption status for an employee:

1. Log in to the uAttend cloud portal as an administrator or supervisor (with permissions).
2. Click on the People tab.
3. Click on the name of the intended employee or click the magnifying glass icon in the upper right corner of the window to search for a person.
4. Click the Job and Pay tab from the navigation panel on the left.
5. Click the button to select the intended exemption status option (listed below) for this person.
   • Non-exempt
   • Exempt
6. Click the SAVE button.
