[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-29-03 AT 11:38AM (CST)[/font][p]I have three departments that pay supervisory personnel "shift pay." We treat their benefits like they are hourly. However, if their shift is for 8 hours and they work 9, they receive another quarter shift - essentially two hours.
If they work 6 8-hour shifts in a week, they make regular shift pay for the last shift.
Do we have the right to define how many hours are in a shift? The manager of the department wants to make their shift 8.5 hours. Would that make us liable for overtime? Or should we be anyway as described in the second paragraph?
I don't have any idea if these people are exempt or non-exempt. Anyone out there have experience with shift pay?
