[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies, unless otherwise specified if a parent offers you a particular rate then that is your base rate. MBs may argue differently, but there is no such thing as an average rate and your local labor board will agree. If you agreed to say $14/hour and are being paid $14/hour including those over 40, you have a claim to back OT pay, as the labor board will assume $14 is your base rate and $21 your OT rate. However if only a weekly rate was specified, so long as when base and OT are calculated they abide by minimum wage laws, this is legal. Parents and nannies alike should be very careful how they address the hourly rate, base and OT should be specified in writing, and don't just assume someone is talking base/average rate. [/quote] I agree. It's wise to again stress that the employer will be legally required to pay up if she hasn't paid the sitter the required OT wages.[/quote] More employers need to get sued and the stupidity will stop. Just watch.[/quote]
