[quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Okay so let's play out an example week here.

Nanny usually works Mon-Fri 9-5 (40 hrs). This week nanny's hours were:

Mon 9-5
Tues (Paid Holiday)
Wed 9-5
Thurs 9-7
Fri 9-7

So the nanny only worked 36 hours but is guaranteed 40. Is the nanny paid 40 hours this week, or 44? Shouldn't she get the full 8 hours for the holiday?[/quote]

It depends on the wording of the work agreement. If your WA says:

"Nanny shall receive the following holidays paid:..."

and also says,

"Nanny shall work 9 am - 5 pm Monday through Friday, for a total of 40 paid hours per week. It is understood that nanny has reserved those 40 hours for employers. Nanny will be paid for 40 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, regardless of whether employers choose to use her services when she is available to work. If nanny works any hours outside of 9 am - 5 pm M - F, she will be compensated at her OT rate of $X per additional hour worked."

then yes, nanny should be paid for 4 OT hours.[/quote]
