Is ssunday paid overtime?

For most retail jobs, Sunday is not paid overtime. If you work a job that is typically closed on the weekends, it could be. If working Sunday would put you working past 40 hours, and you aren't salaried, then it would be overtime.


If you are a manager would you be entitled to extra pay for working on a statutory holiday?

Managers are generally salaried employees not hourly. They get all the overtime they want. However they don't get extra pay for it. Working stat holidays is part of the package. Many firms tacitly expect salaried staff to voluntarily contribute at least 10% extra time under normal conditions and all of their time under extraordinary conditions.

What are the advantages of being salaried and exempt versus non-exempt?

For the worker, being salaried and exempt means you're not entitled to demand the minimum wage, overtime pay rates and schedules, and other protections under child labor and equal pay, as prescribed by the federal government's FLSA law. For example, if you're salaried, your boss might ask you to work longer hours some nights or weekends and you won't get the same overtime pay for doing that that your hourly-waged friends would get. However, being salaried has many advantages. It's a steady income and chances are it means you have a better job with more of a career future. I agree with the above answer with one exception. Being salary exempt means you are exempted from the US laws covering overtime pay. It DOES NOT mean you are exempt from the minimum wage law. Since the 1980s, the courts have repeatedly upheld the finding that a salaried employee's rate MUST equal minimum wage. (Several companies, including Pizza Hut and Howard Johnsons, have lost class-action suits on this very matter. Your salary must exceed minimum for the average hours you work.) Salaried employees are expected to put in as many hours as necessary to get the job done. Often, they have higher overall earnings, more responsiblity and more potential for job growth than hourly workers. Be aware that in most salaried positions, working 42 hours this week doesn't mean you can work 38 the next week.


My position requires an average of 40 hours worked per week on a 5 day schedule. A month ago, I was given a new responsibility that requires me to work 8-10 extra hours a week. I am now working 6-7 days a week with no overtime pay. Is this legal?

You did not state whether you are an hourly or a salaried worker. If you are an hourly worker, your employer is legally required to pay overtime if you work over 40 hours. If you are a salaried worker, that may not be true. This information applies in Houston, Texas.


If your employer charges overtime rates for you should you be entitled to the overtime pay or just for hours worked over 40?

(In the US) It's immaterial WHAT your employer charges their clients for your services. As for your being eligible to earn overtime pay after working 40 hours in one week - you would have to check the wording of the Fair labor Standards Act (FLSA) to determine if your job or position fell under the category that can earn overtime.
