[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the same pay period , it is legal since nanny is paid for the hours actually worked. some edge exceptions in a few places like CA where overtime must be done based on hours each day as opposed to hours each week, but that’s essentially a special definition of what the pay period is. Guaranteed hours are a benefit that is relatively unique to nannying for various reasons, and it depends on the relationship / contract terms / how much notice MB gives / what else nanny has going on in her off time as to the exact structure of those guaranteed hours and whether the nanny is okay with shifting hours occasionally here and there (again, in the same pay period). In the US you cannot legally have someone work say, 41 hours in one week and 39 another and pay 40 both weeks if their pay period is weekly.[/quote]

Oh ok yes I see, samepay period. I’m in LA and all the companies I’ve worked for do pay time and half daily, not weekly. So if I work 9.5 h one day I get paid 1.5x my rate after 8 hours, even if I don’t work 40 hours a week. [/quote]
