[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sue them. They'll have to pay back wages. Literally , they will be forced to. Why so many nannies don't stand up for their legal rights is a mystery to me... Unless it's a genuine case of abuse I never advise walking out on a job before having a new one lined up, but PP you'd better be out there applying. Stop letting them use you as a doormat.[/quote] When I calculate my hrs out when I work 60 hrs per week I technically make more then minimum wage. So every hr I work my hourly rate just goes down. They are paying at least minimum wage with all hrs worked. That's there defense.[/quote] Do you have a contract stating your hourly wage? Or even your weekly rate? There have been cases won, where the nanny showed her weekly rate, and what her schedule was supposed to be, and successfully sued the families for her OT. If the base and OT rate are not documented, it is rightfully assumed that they are paying you at straight time, and not paying for all hours worked. You are an hourly employee, and you are entitled to OT. Document what is going on and show them the laws, get their willful disobedience on record (email), find a new job, and sue the pants off them.
