Also.
Say you have ten employees all getting overtime. Say 10 hours a week of overtime each on average. That's 100 hours of overtime pay your company is paying out.
You make 5 of them "substantially important" and stop paying them overtime. But instead of their normal 10 hours of overtime you now make them work 20 hours of overtime to cover the entire 100 hours because you don't have to pay them for it anymore. Now those 5 are screwed out of compensation for their work and the OTHER 5 are screwed out of their overtime hours because they are being heaped onto the "important" employees.
