[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every job I've advertised announces the rate I'm willing to pay. I know a lot of nannies instead want to tell the families the rate they want, but I'd rather not even interview someone who wants more than I can pay. So, I would absolutely say, in my ad, "job is 50 hours for $1000/wk, $18/hr base pay, $27/hr overtime." How is that either predatory or offensive?[/quote] That's perfect. It's a blended rate of $20 an hour, which is likely what the nanny wants to hear. But legally you need to contract it as base pay/overtime in order to comply with the OT laws. You can also guarantee the hours contractually if the nanny is concerned at all. It's not a secret to getting around the law at all. It's complying with the law in a transparent, above-board way that gets everyone what they need in the end--nanny gets the rate she/he is looking for, and employers are following labor laws.[/quote]
