salaried

Paid by year

Salaried describes workers paid a fixed regular amount rather than by the hour: salaried employees don't get overtime.

The term often implies professional or white-collar status, as hourly wages are more common for manual or service work.

A salaried position typically comes with benefits and job security that hourly work may lack.
