[quote=Anonymous]it seems like OP is clear on the law and just wants to poll what people do in practice. I do pay my nanny OT hours even for vacation and holidays. So for example if she works 10 hour days and there is a holiday that week, I code the week as 32 hours regular + 8 hours holiday + 10 hours OT on payroll. This is not legally required but my thinking is that her paycheck would get pretty complicated and variable if I didn’t. And what would happen if I decide to take more of my vacation one year as 3 day weekends rather than in one week blocks? She would work a bunch of 42-hour weeks and lose 8 hours of OT every time based on my vacation choice. There are also ~10 holidays so that’s 10 weeks in which she gets much less OT pay. Add her own vacations and it could be that she doesn’t make the “full” amount something like 25% of the time.
In the end I was not confident I could explain this math and set expectations appropriately in a way the nanny would understand and actually be happy with, so I just decided to guarantee hours with OT pay and factor that into my base rate instead.[/quote]
