[quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous]I am helping ex nanny with her new ontract, and it states:

Gross annual of 36,732 for 45 weekly hours
It also states any additional hours over 40 will be paid at 24.17

So: 
40 @ $16 = 644.4
5 @ $24.17 = 120.85
Total: $765.25
52 weeks: 39,793

Am I missing anything? Is the gross in the contract wrong?

Thanks![/quote]

Working backwards: 45 hours/week with OT (which I am assuming, since you8 had OT in your post) = 47.5 hours straight time. Pay 52 weeks per year. 47.5 x 52 = total hours worked/paid is 2470. Divide the stated gross annual rate of 36,732 by 2470 = $14.87/hour straight time, and $22.31/hour overtime.

So, yes, there is a miscommunication somewhere. [b]I would suggest your ex-nanny ask her potential employers to specify the weekly rate, and break it down into straight time and overtime. [/b]One possibility is that the employers plan to pay every 2 weeks (26 pay periods) and accidentally switched that to bi-monthly pay (24 pay periods) without adjusting the actual yearly gross.[/quote]
