What? Alaska labor law and federal labor laws don’t say that hourly employees who work more that 8 hours a day, and more than 40 a week don’t get OT?
I must have my wires crossed because I sure thought I knew that!
It is kinda screwed up. Apparently you can call someone a “manager” and don’t have to pay overtime. If anyone is gaming the system it is the employers. 40 hrs a week is enough for anyone to work. Employer wants them to work any more than that them pay them overtime.
I average about 60 hrs a week. Not hard work, but away from family, home and hobbies. I don’t qualify for any overtime. I’m in sales and we are exempt from overtime pay. Apparently.
