What else can I help you with?
can a company force you to work past your scheduled time?
Yes. There is no federal regulation regarding forced overtime. Employees over the age of 16 who refuse to work forced overtime are subject to discipline up to and including being fired. Bills are being considered regarding overtime in the medical field. Employees with disabilities may get special consideration if mandatory overtime is difficult because of their disability, but in general, if your boss says you have to work overtime you don't have much choice.
What if a doctor says no to circumcision?
Find a doctor who says yes.
Can you demand a new drug test if your employer says you tested positive?
You can. Your employer can demand you pay for it.
What if the employer says no to garnish?
Being that he/she is the employer and you are the employee, you should follow his orders and not use garnish.
Is it illegal to get paid a normal salary if you're working overtime?
The Fair Labor Standards Act says that most workers have to be paid "overtime" (more than 40 hours each week) at the overtime rate (50% more than your normal pay). There is an exception for high level managers. But not everybody who gets paid a salary instead of an hourly wage is a high level manager. Low level managers and supervisors still have to be paid overtime just like the blue-collar grunts on the assembly line. Check with your state's Department of Labor if you think your employer is not following the law.
Does an employer have to pay you if they send you home when your scheduled you show up and the employer says they switched you with someone else?
yes
Is overtime optional?
That depends on the company. Some companies don't allow overtime, while others require employees to work overtime on a regular basis. Hourly paid employees, especially fast food workers, clerks, and cashiers are usually not allowed to work overtime because the companies don't want to pay the extra money. Salaried employees (those that make a set monthly or yearly amount no matter how many hours they work) are often required to work overtime, with no extra pay for it. As far as the law goes, no, overtime is not optional. Your employer has the right to keep you at work passed 8 hours if they chose to. If you have a union, your collective agreement often contains a clause that makes overtime optional.
After beening injuried I've been working with restriction by the doctor about 4 months. My employer send me home last Wednesday saying he does not have a job for me. can he do this to me?
If he has no work, he has no work. What...he's going to pay you for you looks? ADA says that the employer has to make reasonable accommodations for the handicapped employees. That doesn't mean the employer has to invent a job for you. If your injury was work-related, you're getting workman's comp anyhow.
Do you always do your best to contribute of your employer?
Yes you do. If you don't have enough respect for your employer to do that, you should be looking for a new employer. And don't forget, no matter what your job description says, one of your duties is to make your boss and your employer look good.

Can your employer make you work 70 hours a week?
An employer usually sets the work week within the contract of hiring their employee. The most at which an employer can make you work is 48 hours a week and the employee has the right to work more if they so choose to.
Hi, my question is when you get paid bi-monthly and one week has overtime and the other is less than 40 about 37hrs. does the week that has overtime go to the non overtime week, or should you get overtime for the one week this is a big question @ our pla?
FLSA law says that a week is 40 hours. If you worked more than 40 hours that week, anything over the 40 is overtime even if you worked only 37 the following week.
