California and are primarily engaged in the practice of: law, medicine,
dentistry, optometry, architecture, engineering, teaching, or accounting.

Learned Professionals. People who have advanced knowledge in a field of
science or learning that is customarily acquired by prolonged and specialized
study.

第三點其中獨立判斷解釋如下：

To qualify as an exempt employee, California’s Labor Code requires the
worker to regularly exercise discretion and independent judgment in
performing their duties.

An employee exercises discretion and independent judgment when the employee
makes and implements important choices after considering competing courses of
action.

An employee’s judgment is independent when it is free from immediate
direction or supervision, even if an employee who is higher in the management
chain has the authority to override the decision.決策不能受上級干擾
