[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No need legally to pay OT but I agree this is likely to cause hard feelings because nanny will effectively have to sacrifice pay when she has PTO. As an MB I just assume nanny pay is a fixed weekly amt and do not try to nickel and dime her. I really do not understand those always trying to see how up pay nanny less than her standard weekly amount. Now if she normally does not work OT but shifted hrs this week due to the day off then maybe it is more reasonable.

[b]OP does she normally work 40+ hours?[/b][/quote]

Absolutely agree. This calculation depends entirely on what the nanny's normal schedule is. If she worked her normal hours other than the day she took off, then she should get her normal weekly pay, with whatever overtime calculations that normally includes. If she shifted her hours this week, and worked more hours Mon-Thurs and then took off Friday (or whatever her PTO day was) then the calculation should look more like Regular Weekly Pay + standard rate x number of extra hours worked.

Basically it's ok not to pay overtime on additional hours that did not put her over 40 worked hours, but not ok not to pay it if that's what she usually makes. It's not really PTO if you're getting less than what you normally earn.[/quote]
