[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why don't nannies get paid a salary instead of being an hourly rate employee? would that help[/quote]

Because then there is no end of abuses they would suffer.

Let's say I'm a nanny and my MB is Director of Development at a non-profit. She has a set number of tasks she needs to accomplish daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annually. She knows what they are, typically ahead of time, and can arrange her time and schedule in order to accomplish them.

A nanny has no such list - rather, she provides coverage. If a nanny is on a salary with no set schedule, she could end up working 6am-12am seven days a week and why? Because MB didn't budget her work time better, or because MB is taking advantage and enjoying extra downtime alone, with friends, with DB, and so on.

There is a pretty clear difference between the obligations in salaried jobs (performing specific tasks and accomplishing specific goals) and hourly jobs (working during scheduled hours).[/quote]
