Overtime PolicyReview List
This review list is provided to inform you about this document in question and assist you in its preparation. Good corporate housekeeping requires you have a stated Overtime policy, even if not used. Any review of your payroll records by a government agency will involve identifying policies such as Overtime. Having a policy in place simplifies that kind of investigation and is suggestive to the evaluating bureaucrat that you have your house more in order than most companies.
Our business advice is to have the Company President sign and date the form so it has the full force and effect of that office.
