[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh? There's absolutely no difference between a blended rate based on set overtime and regular time hours, and a lower rate for one set of hours and 1.5x that rate for the contracted OT hours. The math is all the same. If you don't like blended rates, then just give people your salary in terms of what the contract actually says--you make $20 an hour, but you get paid 1.5x that, as required by law, for OT hours. It doesn't make any difference to me as an employer, since at the end of the day your paycheck is the same. [/quote]
If it makes no difference to you, then stop the crap. Every hourly worker has a hourly pay rate. No one else creates "blended" rates for OT. 
No one.[/quote]

Why are nannies the only hourly workers in the country who have blended rates?[/quote]

They're not. Some unions use blended rates, and many hourly professions do. Both the feds and many states have instructions on their website about how to calculate these rates in a way that complies with the law. The point is that you must be transparent about what the actual base rate of pay is so that a worker understands that he/she is receiving overtime pay for hours above and beyond base hours, and your final pay must comply with whatever state or federal laws you are subject to.
