    A salary worker is paid a certain amount. They can work 70 hours in a week and get the same amount of money for working a 40 hour week. It is all based on a 40 hour work week. Anything over is free time.

    Depends. My father was on salary up to xx hours. Anything after that he was paid - but not overtime. They divided his salary against the amount of hours the salary went to, to determine an hourly 'wage', of which then he was paid for extra hours.
