Salaried Employee. Clocking In And Out And Employer Stated If We Do Not Work 80 Hours In Two Weeks, Pay Is Deducted. If We Work Over 80 Hours, No Overtime.
Pretty much as the title states. My job has recently decided to switch us to clocking in and out. I’ve been at my job for almost a year now, so the change is annoying. However, it also feels illegal. We’re salaried but we’re told if we do not make our 80 hours in two weeks our pay is deducted to reflect that. Whatever I guess, but they also stated that if we work over 80 hours, we do not get overtime. Is this legal? At the very least it seems shady, but I’m leaving the company anyways in a few months, so that’s out of the question. I’m more so curious for my current coworkers as they’re frustrated by the change as well. I should include that I’m unaware if we’re exempt or nonexempt, I’ve been told both lol. Just seems like I’m essentially working as an hourly employee at that point but without the benefit of overtime (yes, sometimes I work over 80 hours in two weeks). Location: Texas. I’m aware that the labor board exists as well and to report if it is not legal after paystubs reflect this behavior, but I’m more so curious as to whether I’m missing something and this is in fact legal. I feel like I’m missing something and it is legal because it’s a rather large company. Originally posted on a different account but decided to post from this one instead.
