This is the threshold they use as the cutoff for overtime pay. Originally the cutoff was $35,000 a year and then you wouldn't have to pay any overtime if the salary is over that. This would require overtime pay for any salaried employees that are under $55,000 a year. It's a good thing and it's being used to come back practices that major retailers like Dollar general embrace.
