Dated today 12/10/08 Rec’d memo demanding comp-time in lieu of on-call overtime, no overtime at all. Property Management/Apt. Complex. Do the laws only apply to companies over a certain # of employees?

I am a nurse and work 48 hours a week. Sometimes I get put on call and am called back in. We are usually paid call back time (time and 1/2) However, if we are called back on a 48 hr week we don’t get the call back pay. Is this legal?

I recently started working for a company as an assisstant manager. I am paid on a salary and when hired I was told I would be scheduled 5 days a week, 10 hrs a day. I am on a time clock and at the end of each work week I show 50hrs worked. When I recieve my paycheck though, it says I am only putting in 40hrs per week. Why would this be? And is this legal?

My husbund was hired by this guy as a contractor, although he is not, and he is required to work 10 hours a day 6 days a week for 8 bucks an hour, that is it, no overtime. That can’t be right!
