Maximum Earnings Limitations on Federal Pay
There are statutory provisions that can cause your pay to be much less than you expect after you’ve worked overtime or other premium hours, such as work at night, on a holiday or on a Sunday. The author explains how these work.
Holiday Pay Following a Day Off
I am a midnight shift employee. If I am off on Sunday night but work the night of the holiday (in this case Monday), do I get holiday pay being that I worked a part of the holiday?
When Does the Administrative Workweek Begin?
When does the regularly scheduled work week begin? Is it always on a Sunday or is it Monday?
Sunday Premium Pay and Travel
May an employee choose to waive Sunday premium pay and work just base rate on Sunday? For instance, if an employee travels on Sunday, can he claim to work on Sunday but not claim premium pay?
Scheduling for Known Work Requirements
Our facility has a sign up roster for staff to volunteer to work extra hours. Those who volunteer are allowed to record Compensatory Time for the extra hours worked, but they are not allowed to claim Overtime or Night Differential pay for the hours worked. Is this acceptable?
Sunday Differential and Night Differential
Are there any different rules for the 35% extra when I work Sunday Night as part of my regularly scheduled work week?
