Salaried employees can qualify for overtime based on their job duties - method of payment is irrelevant to that decision, only duties matter.

Private employees can never get comp time in lieu of overtime. Government employees can't get comp time unless the employer offers it in a written policy.

Governments cannot be compelled to offer comp time.

What are Indiana laws on Comp Time for hourly employees?

In Indiana, compensatory time (comp time) for hourly employees is not mandated by state law; instead, it is generally governed by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Under the FLSA, private sector employers cannot offer comp time to non-exempt hourly employees in lieu of overtime pay. However, public sector employers can provide comp time, but it must be at a rate of 1.5 hours for each hour of overtime worked. Employers must clearly communicate their comp time policies and ensure compliance with both state and federal regulations.


When can time off in lieu if pay be given for overtime?

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.


How do you figure the cost of workman's comp into payroll?

Worker's compensation is calculated by the type of job an employee does. Each job classification is rated by the underwriter according to risk, then the worker's comp premium is multiplied by the gross dollar amounts paid to employees. An officer of a corporation and other select employees can opt out of worker's comp. Also, if an employee works overtime, the straight time is subject to worker's comp, but the "half" of "time and a half" is not.

How many hours do social workers work per week?

At the BSW level it will depend partially if you are hired on an hourly wage or as a salaried employee (also will depend a bit on what state you live in). As an hourly employee you would be required to work 40 hours and if you worked more you would get over-time. If you are salaried you are not entitled to overtime (though some organizations will give comp time). You are payed to get a job done and if that requires you to work overtime then that is what you are expected to do. So it is less about what area you work in and more about what type of employee you are. I've seen government employees put in 60+ hours and mental health folks put in 40.
