[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Domestic workers are, by law, hourly employees.  However, you could be the employers "assistant" and be paid a weekly salary.  [/quote]

It's not the title, it's the job description/activities that determine the status. Otherwise, you could call your nanny vice-president of the household and do the same.

OP, why do you want to do this? I don't think your employers are going to agree to pay you your hourly rate x your scheduled hours every week, but then say you can go home whenever you want. They might agree to pay your hourly rate x however many hours you are usually there, but then you'll end up with less money. If you want the time back, though, and the freedom to go home a little early sometimes, then that might be worth it.

Or, why not just ask for more to do?[/quote]

If no children are involved, she could easily call herself her employers assistant.  Wealthy people have personal assistants who are not paid hourly.  [/quote]

Housekeepers and other domestic staff are under the exact same IRS heading. [/quote]
