[quote=Anonymous][quote]And before anyone starts arguing legalities of OT when a holiday was included in the week blahblahblah:

If employers choose to nit pick 4 hours of OT vs. 4 hours of straight pay in a situation like the one OP described, several reactions may take place on the part of the nanny:

1) OK, well, I will refuse to work any additional hours on weeks where I have a paid holiday.

2) I think agreeing to work any more OT is a mistake on my part. The family doesn't seem to value my time very much.

3) Seriously? They pay me $15/hour and can't cough up for 4 hours of OT, instead insisting that a holiday means they avoid paying OT??? So they saved 4 x $7.50, and pissed me off to the point that I am going to be job hunting. Hope the $30 they saved was worth it!

Right. Why should we be concerned about the actual legalities of OT when a holiday is involved because, according to you, blahblahblah?

Because maybe the law helps families avoid nannies that wish to take advantage of them by advancing this foolish idea that legal concerns are blahblahblah.

You are delusional, nannydeb, if you think nannies have the upper hand in this situation. Families are not afraid of nannies leaving because there are far more nannies than jobs.

The only good point you have is number one. Refuse to work additional hours on weeks you have a holiday.[/quote]
