Goal: blended $18/hour for 50 hours, $900 weekly gross pay cheque
Equation:40hours*X + 10hours*1.5X = $18*50 = $900/week
Hourly wage X technically: $16.36
OT wage 1.5X technically: $24.50
Do you think most families find it easier to hire a nanny who is only looking at gross wages, rather than having a set hourly range they expect AND OT where applicable?
If so, why do you think your 'formula" above is standard? Is it because nannies may not know they have a right to be paid OT, or because they just want a gros rate that is acceptable to them and don't care what their hourly rate is?
