[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She wants free care You let her know upfront that you charge your regular rate and have a 3 or 4 hour minimum or OT after 8 hours. I know a family where the MB tries to screw nannies all the time with "trial" days.[/quote] How ignorant. You cannot charge OT after 8 hours. You can charge whatever rate you want. And explain that after 8 hours, your rate will go up. You will sound like a crazy person. Go ahead and try it.[/quote] You are incorrect. In both the District and VA, if it is an 8 hour assignment and the job runs over, OT is paid. In another life, I worked one summer for a temp agency and OT applied for jobs over 8 hours.[/quote] Dream on. You wish you had free extra money coming to you for just being your glorious self. The 8 hour overtime law is pretty specific. There are some specific categories of jobs where you can get that plus you have to work an x number of hours over a period of time to be eligible. Your temp job may have paid overtime through contract arrangements, not through legal mandate. You usually do not get overtime, unless you worked more than 40 hours/week. Virginia doesn't even have any overtime laws and only follows Federal laws. Also, if you work on holidays and weekends, those hours do not count towards the 40 required for overtime. The 40 hours must be worked during the workweek. https://laborlawcenter.com/blog/news/virginia-overtime-labor-law/[/quote]
