[quote=Anonymous]OP, our nanny's regular weeks was 50 hours and we paid overtime for hours worked over 40. However, we paid straight time for holidays and for vacation time, and specified that in the contract ahead of time -- our view was that you get time and a half for hours over the "normal" workweek. Greater compensation for those hours because they are greater wear and tear and inconvenience. But our doing so did cause problems -- no matter how many times we explained it, our nanny didn't understand why she was making less those weeks. In my view, it made sense: she was working less, and was not working more than a "normal" workweek. But she complained, and I ended up just paying the time and a half anyway. If I had to do it again, I'd pay the time and one half out of the box, even though it is not required.[/quote]
