Specifically, they want to know the difference between a “regular” AdministrativeAssistant and an Executive Assistant. In this article, I want to explore both the AdministrativeAssistant role and the Executive Assistant role as thoroughly as possible, without overwhelming you.
Typically, wage inequality isn’t deliberate but is an act of omission in a company that hasn’t regularly analyzed salaries. That said, in certain limited cases, people in similar jobs can be paid different salaries. However, one of these legally sound reasons must first exist: Documented seniority systems.
You may feel your administrativeassistant is critical to your business. Paid on a salary basis for all hours worked ($455 weekly minimum or higher). Administrative exemptions. Paid on a salary basis for all hours worked ($455 weekly minimum or higher). Highly compensated employees. Here’s another example.
A reader writes: I work as an administrativeassistant for a small professional company. The response: When I run errands in my off time for him, it’s usually after work hours and I’m not paid for that time, but I’m also salaried, so overtime is never something I’m paid for anyway.
I was surprised since I’m in a marijuana legal state, and there had been no mention of drug testing (I’m an administrativeassistant, not for a government agency). I was candid with HR that I am a medical CBD and recreational marijuana user, and expressed respectful surprise that they test for THC in a state where it’s legal.
Accepting a job with an agreement to negotiate salary after six months. I was told that I would get a chance to negotiate salary after my six-month trial period was up. Well, first, it’s not inappropriately pushy to negotiate salary. Is this legal? Here we go…. I recently started a new job.

My friend, Jane, works as an administrativeassistant for a nonprofit. But when Jane received the offer letter from HR, it said that her title and salary would not be changing. Jane emailed Karissa back saying that she wasn’t comfortable accepting the promotion unless there was a change in title or salary.
She did not invite our administrativeassistant, who is also off-site – she was just planning on the meeting attendees, I guess? • Around July, my department head asked all exempt employees (salaried, not overtime eligible, no time clock to track hours) in my office to start filling out a task log.
I have been at my new job as an administrativeassistant for just over two months. A previous employer used to require that salaried, exempt employees clock in and out every day. However, if we had to work more than 40 hours in a week, we weren’t paid overtime, because we were salaried/exempt.). Is this legal?
Even though I earn a really good salary, it irks me that I spend over $3,500 a year for a car I don’t want. Also, there must be legal issues regarding an employer forcing an employee to spend money on something they don’t want to have. I work as at a leading worldwide pharmaceutical company as an administrativeassistant.

I had a compliance role in the legal department of a Fortune 500 investment company. This was a big blow to my family since I provided health and retirement benefits, as well as the “bread winner” salary. in my exact field, albeit in an administrativeassistant capacity (which would be a step down from my previous compliance position).
