At the 2010 NFPA Convention, the delegates established an ad hoc committee to explore the possibility of changing the Department of Labor’s definition/designation of exempt/non-exempt status of paralegals.  The committee is working hard on this research.  As part of this research, they have developed the attached very brief survey (6 questions and a comment section).  In order to assist the committee, it would be greatly appreciated it if you took a couple minutes to complete the survey.  We also ask that you please forward this survey to members of your association so that they may participate.  All those who complete the survey have the chance to enter their name into a drawing for a $25 gift card.  On behalf of NFPA and the ad hoc committee, thank you for your time in responding to this survey.
