What about work comp in Michigan?
if you are off work and leaving and get hurt is that workers comp
In the State of Illinois, overtime is not paid to the employee until they have worked 40 hours. This does not inlcude holiday pay.Overtime is based on hours actually worked during a given work week. Holiday pay for a day when an employee does not work is not included in the 40 hours for purposes of overtime calculation.
You are thinking of what is called compensatory or "comp" time which is accrued by some FLSA exempt (e.g. salaried) workers for any time they work over 40 hours in a given seven day period. Non-exempt workers must be paid for overtime.
Overtime is work done outside your normal daily hours. If you normally work an eight hour day, but work an extra hour one day. That extra hour is overtime, and overtime is often paid at a higher rate.
This would depend on the length of your work time vs the period workers comp represents, as to your injury/sickness. Unemployment generally has a base period of 5 quarters that it derives its calculations on, so it's mainly time related.
If you have a union where you work, overtime is often limited for workers in school. If you are being forced to work overtime which is unfair, you should join a union.
In incentive compensation plans there are many things included such as rewarding employees for their hard work, such as hours spent at work or overtime. Rewards can be directly linked to phone usage, for example, and can include instantly redeemable rewards controlled by the employer.
If they have to correct a fault in an important corporation's IT system, they may well work overtime.
AnswerFederal law developed the work comp system and every state has a unique form of it. If you have a single employee, then you need work comp insurance. No matter the state. If the employee becomes injured, if you don't have work comp insurance they can sue your company and you personally for not carrying the work comp insurance.You can be a sole P, INC, LLC, or partnership and get work comp insurance. You can even get work comp insurance for yourself as an owner.Check with a local insurance broker to make sure you are following your states law.
You're supposed to be paid more if you work overtime.
