Question about overtime?
Asked by Casie
My husband works at a very small company, welding and installing pipe for underground gasoline tanks... His official title is logistics manager though. I recently had a baby and we decided to go to salary so if he ever needed to go to a doctor appointment his work would be flexible he would just work extra hours another day, it sounded perfect. Since he has gone to salary he works 60-80hrs a week, weekends, and also travels being gone at weeks at a time with no extra compensation. He has spent so much time at work he almost missed the birth of his first son. I live in florida does anybody know if this is illegal or are there laws requiring his boss to compensate him for all the extra work. Thank you

Best Answer:
Nope. This is the downside of becoming an exempt employee.
