silly question about working overtime

Published

hi

this is kind of silly question, but is it possible to work both full time and contingent at the same facility??? i mean working over time is useless since all the over time pay are tax deducted. i worked 40 hours over time, and my check amount was about the same. if i work both full time and contingent then i dont have to drive to another facility and since i'll be paid the contingent hourly rate, i dont think it will be deducted as much as over time????

If you are concerned about being paid properly for the time that you work you should see an attorney.

If you are "EXEMPT" - meaning that you actually SUPERVISE other employees and can Hire and/or Fire someone then you may not be eligible for overtime.

However, even if you work at two facilities and they are CONTROLLED (ownership is not an issue) by the same company or person, then you must be paid overtime unless you are EXEMPT.

See the Department of Labor Fact Sheet:
