Overtime Exemption for Seasonal Outdoor Recreation Guides and Outfitters.

This bill amends labor law to exempt certain employees working as outdoor recreational guides or outfitters from federal maximum hours requirements, meaning they would not be entitled to overtime pay. This exemption applies only to businesses that operate seasonally or experience significant seasonal revenue fluctuations. For affected employees, this means they can work more than 40 hours per week without receiving time-and-a-half pay.
Key points
Outdoor guides and outfitters may lose the right to receive overtime pay for working over 40 hours per week.
The exemption is limited to businesses that are seasonal (operating less than seven months) or have highly seasonal income patterns.
