[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you are describing is illegal. She must be paid minimum wage for every hour worked. [/quote] Room & Board count as part of minimum wage. What are you talking about?[/quote] Not according to the law https://www.dol.gov/whd/regs/compliance/whdfs79b.htm[/quote] I JUST posted the FAQ above that says that is does, in fact, count as part of the minimum wage if the room is for the benefit of the employee, not the employer, which it is in this case. In this case, the OP did not hire a live-in nanny. She offered a room (which the girl needed), in exchange for a variety of domestic tasks that the OP can do herself. This person is paying off her room, not living there to be available to OP.[/quote]
