Not sure what you mean by "non-exempt" employee. If you are a W-2 employee, you cannot deduct any job-related expenses on your federal return. The tax reform laws eliminated job-related expenses as a deduction on your federal tax return.

Wild guess here, but is the "statutory employee" box on your W-2 checked?
