The number of hours worked that qualifies an employee for fringe benefits depends on the company. Usually, a person that works a full 40 hours a week on a regular basis is considered full time. Anything less than 30 hours a week is considered part-time in most cases.
It is more the minimum amount of money that an employer has to pay versus the number of hours. If an employee works less than 3 hours than the employer is required to pay the employee an amount equal to 3 hours of work at the minimum wage in the respective province. So for example, in Alberta the minimum wage is $8.80/ hours X 3 hours is $26.40, so if the employee's hourly rate is in excess of the minimum wage, for example $12.00, than the employer is only required to pay 2.2 hours, which is $26.40 / 12.
No. An employer can not pay an employee half time unless the following requirements are met: 1. the employee's hours must fluctuate from week to week;2. the employee must be salaried and be paid the same each week regardless of the number of hours that the employee works during the week;3. the fixed amount must be sufficient to provide compensation at a regular rate not less than the legal minimum wage.4. the employer and the employee must have a clear, mutual understanding that the employer will pay the employee the fixed weekly salary regardless of the hours worked; and5. the employee must receive a fifty percent overtime premium in addition to the fixed weekly salary for all hours that the employee works in excess of forty during that week. If the employers often do not follow all of the requirements of this method and their employees are still owed time and one-half for all hours worked over 40 hours.
Less work is being done obviously and your workers may be less devoted and loyal if they know their hours are bing cut.
Generally, a meal period of not less than 30 minutes should be provided if the employee works more than 5 hours per day unless the total work period per day of the employee is no more than 6 hours. Usually, meal breaks are not paid but if the employee is not relieved of all duty during the 30 minute meal period, it shall be considered an "on duty" meal period which should be compensated at the employee's regular rate of pay. Yes after four and a half hours. If you want to learn more look up Ocea's laws.

AnswerA non-exempt employee is an hourly paid employee. Therefore, he is paid according to the time he works; no more, no less. An exempt employee is a salaried employee who gets paid the same amount regardless of how much he might go over 40 hours in a week. As for if the exempt employee gets paid for taking off half a day, it depends on the wage and hour laws of the state. ************The information stated above is correct, however, it does not answer the specific question being asked. The above question is asking about a SALARIED NON-EXEMPT employee and not a SALARIED EXEMPT employee. There is a difference.Dealing only with non-exempt employees, yes, generally a non-exempt employee is an hourly paid employee who is paid for the actual hours they work. There can also be SALARIED FOR FIXED HOURS non-exempt employees and SALARIED FOR PARTIAL HOURS non-exempt employees. These positions are paid a set amount per week, with anything over 40 hours being paid time and a half. e.g. If they work 35 hours in a week they still get the full salary amount. If they work 42 hours in a week they get the full salary amount plus two hours overtime. The Department of Labor has a lot of information on these positions.If you are a salaried non-exempt employee, I do not believe your employer can deduct for partial days worked. If you miss work because of sickness, leave of absence or can't make it in, then a full day deduction may apply.
No
An average astronaut works 9 hours a day. In a week an astronaut works 63 hours. It also depends if you are more experienced or a beginner as an astronaut. If you are experienced you work that amount. But if you are a beginner than you might work less.
Less than 40 hours per week classifies as part time according to the government. However, it would really depend on the employer and how many hours a week they need an employee.
