Screwy Labor Day week paystub
Permalink   


I'm full time.  Under my contract I get three days off during a holiday week.  Anything over 32 hours is overtime.  The remaining 8 hours is paid under "Legal Holiday" and counts as part of my work hours for the week.  Some people under an older contract get paid time and a half if they work on the holiday or on Sunday.  Those are listed under "Holiday Pay" or "Sunday Pay" respectively.  Labor day week I worked on Labor Day and stayed over a half hour.  I stayed over an hour and a half another day.  So I had two hours of overtime.  In the state of Kentucky, any work over 40 hours in work week is paid at time and a half, even if it's just 15 minutes.  The new contract says overtime doesn't start until you've worked more than 30 minutes past the end of your shift.  However the 40 hour work week rule supersedes that.

So on my paystub should have said 16 hours Regular Pay, 8 hours Sunday, 8 hours Holiday Pay, 8 hours Legal Holiday pay, 2 hours Overtime Pay.  The 2 hours of overtime and the 8 hours Legal Hoilday were correct.  Sunday pay was correct.  However regular pay said 15.5 hours and Holiday pay said 8.5 hours.  That .5 hours under Holiday pay shouldn't have been there.  It was part of the overtime pay.  So they had to deduct .5 hours from somewhere else.  I mean I got the correct pay but their accounting methods leave a lot to be desired.  Last year they screwed up and overpaid me one week.  I paid taxes on the money.  When they discovered their mistake, they took back the gross amount they paid me, but didn't refund the taxes.  They're suppose to do that when that happens.  Otherwise I'm paying taxes on money I didn't receive.
