Lets say that your are paid 8 hours for Monday because it is a national holiday but then you put in 40 hours of actual work from Tuesday to Friday. Do you get 48 hours of straight pay or 40 hours of straight and 8 hours of overtime?
I ask because we pay overtime but when I sent the hours stated with holiday pay to our payroll company, the office manager said the hours has to be listed under overtime instead of holiday. I don't think she really knows. I figured if the law was the law the payroll company would make the paycheck correct in this regards. Who is right?

I would have to say just by my experience in HR that lets say monday is a holiday that gives you 8 hours you would have to work 40 hours in the remainder of the week to start accruing overtime basiclly if you had 49 hours you would only have 1 hour OT............ I hope this helps!

The payroll office is right. Holiday hours count as paid working hours. The person should get overtime.

It depends on if the company gives time and a half for holidays I think. I used to work at a place that gave 8 hours automatically for holidays and then time and a half for what you actually worked for that day and it was counted as overtime.

The payroll company is correct. You can not have holiday/vacation time and overtime at the same time.
