salaried workers

Fixed-income employees

Salaried workers are employees paid a fixed annual amount rather than hourly wages.

Their compensation doesn't fluctuate with hours worked—they receive the same paycheck whether they put in forty hours or sixty.

This arrangement is typical for professional, administrative, and managerial positions.

Salaried workers often receive benefits like health insurance and paid leave, distinguishing them from hourly or contract workers.
