[quote=webbkathy][quote=Anonymous]Many of our employers and nanny agencies have professional lobbyists advocating for these loopholes in the law. No one is advocating for nanny rights or protection. No one that I am aware of. Someone please correct me, with all details, if I am wrong.

This is one of the many problems with the ina, International NANNY Association. Their attorneys and lobbyists are advocating for laws that financially benefit nanny agencies and their clients, not for the nannies.

Poster, can you please point to one attorney or lobbyist that is advocating for laws that financially benefit nanny agencies and their clients? And precisely how the INA, founded in 1985, had anything to do with the Fair Labor Standards Act as amended in 1974.

I realize you have an axe to grind, and an anonymous message board is very attractive, but at least work from facts.

And OP, FYI Maryland requires OT for live in or live out over 40 hours. Several states, not just NY, have overtime protections of at least some live in domestic workers.

The Department of Labor, under the Obama administration, has made some proposed rules changes for domestic service workers minimum wage and overtime coverages under the FLSA that have been sitting in limbo since December 2011. And these Administration proposals do not propose doing away with this. That would be a good place to start if you want to influence this rule.[/quote]
