Four half-time employees are equal to two full-time employees. Supervision may be split among two or more employees, but each must supervise two or more full-time equivalents. A department with five non-exempt employees, for example, may not have more than two exempt supervisors under this test. Assistance in the actual manager\u2019s absence is not sufficient to meet the requirements of this section. An employee\u2019s work can only be credited to one supervisor; an employee who works eight hours can be credited four hours each to two different supervisors, but not eight hours to each supervisor. <span style=\"color: #000000;\">State laws may provide rules that are more beneficial to the employee and must be followed.
