[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s should be specified in your contract. I think nanny should be paid her normal salary during vacation or sick day. If nanny calls out sick and no longer has PTO, then, she should be paid for actual hours worked that week. Each situation is different and the best thing to do is talk to your employer and come up with something that works for everyone. [/quote]

OP here. It is not addressed in the contract and we are attempting to address the issue now, as it has come up. Nanny has vacation and sick time, that’s not the issue. If nanny is working outside of her normal working hours, which would generally be OT hours, but not actually working over 40 hours due to vacation, do you pay regular rate or OT rate? [/quote]

I’ll be honest, there is no manual and those who employ nannies do whatever fits their situation. In my case, my nanny works 45 hours per week so she gets paid for 45 hours during her vacation (both of her choosing). Legally, there is no wrong answer because you are required to pay for hours actually worked but you can choose to pay her her normal salary. However, because this is something that wasn’t discussed, nanny may be thinking she is getting paid her normal salary during her vacation.

My opinion would be to pay her her normal salary during vacation (this year), if you can and moving forward (if it’s something you can’t continue to do) let her know you will only pay her for 40 hours during vacation/time off. [/quote]
