A number of exempt employees also thought that their employers could not set their hours of work. These myths persisted even though most courts rejected them. Nonetheless, the U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division (“DOL”) has also stated that employers may adopt workplace rules requiring employees to record and track their hours, and even set their work schedules without jeopardizing the employees' exempt status under the Fair Labor Standards Act's (FLSA) exemption for executive, administrative or professional employees. The DOL issued its opinion in response to an employer’s request question as to whether it was permissible for it to implement two new job requirements; namely, requiring exempt employees to work 45 hours per week and mandating that they make up work time lost due to personal absences of less than a day.
