Not exempt from what?

Most employees are entitled to overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act. They are called non-exempt employees.

In my experience, workers are paid in two ways: by annual salary (usually divided into 12 months) or by an hourly rate.
In my experience, salaried workers don't get overtime because there is no hourly rate with which to calculate overtime. But workers paid by hourly rates can earn overtime if it's authorized by their employer(s). Those overtime rates can be "time and a half" (hourly rate x 1.5) or "double time" (hourly rate x 2) or whatever calculations the employer uses.
