I am a salary worker if I work more than 8 hours am I entitled to comp time?

Question

I work in a hospital as a salary worker I have to work extra hours on a regular basis am I entitled to comp time. What are the laws reguarding overtime for salary workers.

Answer 1

Depends on if you are classified as exempt or nonexempt I forget which is which. Ask HR.

Answer 2

I would say no, comp time, if given, is a luxury for salaried employees. I would agree with others - you need to check specifics for your state.

As for making a lot more bucks than hourly? Really? I wish.

Answer 3

Salaried employees have no right to overtime or comp time.

Answer 4

No.
You are an exempt employee. I work 60 hours a week and I wish I was paid overtime.

Answer 5

Sorry. If you're salaried, you're already paid. Where I work you can work up to 80 hours per week and still be paid the same salary. Sucks.

Answer 6

Ha! Do you know the hours some salaried people put in? It's one of the trade-offs for making substantially more than wage slaves. Suck it up and don't whine.

Answer 7

The word salaried speaks for itself, no matter how many hours you work your payed the same salary.

Answer 8

Any hours worked past 40 hrs a week should be overtime pay.

Answer 9

What state are you in? Some have different laws.

Are you considered and Exempt Employee?

I don't have a specific answer, but if you answer these questions you may get a better answer.
