29CFR541.707 - Occasional tasks.

  • Section Number: 541.707
  • Section Name: Occasional tasks.

    Occasional, infrequently recurring tasks that cannot practicably be 
performed by nonexempt employees, but are the means for an exempt 
employee to properly carry out exempt functions and responsibilities, 
are considered exempt work. The following factors should be considered 
in determining whether such work is exempt work: Whether the same work 
is performed by any of the exempt employee's subordinates; 
practicability of delegating the work to a nonexempt employee; whether 
the exempt employee performs the task frequently or occasionally; and 
existence of an industry practice for the exempt employee to perform 
the task.
