According to the FLSA, construction workers who perform repetitive operations with their hands, physical skill and energy are not exempt. This entitles the construction worker to federally mandated minimum and overtime wages requirements. However, some states may have their own overtime pay laws that may be slightly different from the FLSA with respect to overtime pay for construction workers.
