[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have hourly employees recently assigned to me.

I found out they are in a catch 22 situation. OT is very rare and must be pre-approved. So they all “punch the clock” exactly their work hours.

Now my firm does pay a bonus. But mainly exempt employees. The on the clock people often get like $200 to $1,000 a year. The catch 22 bonus is paid for added work but they don’t get paid OT so all leave on time each day and illegal to make then work unpaid OT.

How do you motivate them? For instance if I take then to lunch they got to punch out so just adds to work day. They also have set breaks and lunch periods. It seems very outdated.

This is just flat-out dopey mumbo-jumbo here... what are you even talking about?

They come in, punch the clock like they are supposed to - work their set hours and then clock out when they are supposed to.

Are you expecting them to work more hours w/o being paid?  What is your desired end state and does that somehow benefit them in some real, tangible way?
