I live in Indiana. Should i get paid overtime for traveling to the airport on a Sunday? What is the law?

Question

and yes, this is for work.

Answer 1

Despite the comments above, "salaried" does not mean "no overtime." The deciding factor is whether you are an exempt or non-exempt employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA"). If you are a non-exempt employee, salaried or not, you are entitled to receive overtime compensation at not less than 1 1/2 times your regular rate for hours you work in excess of forty per workweek. "Regular rate" does not mean your hourly rate, as far as the FLSA is concerned.

If you'd like to email me the specifics of your job position and compensation scheme, I'd be happy to give you a more accurrate answer.

Answer 2

If Sunday is not your regular work day and you have already worked your forty for the week. Yes, Believe labor law gives you a minimum 4 hrs. call out and yes it would be overtime.
Of course if you are salaried that's a whole different story.
no overtime on salary.
Best bet check with your local labor dept.

Answer 3

Yes and no! I am not sure many people would push it however!

Usually if you are a hourly employee it would apply I believe! If you are a salaried employee no!

That is a guess, though at the state, if you were assigned to an office, and you were transferred temporarily to another office, you would be paid the time between the 2 offices and the mileage!!

Answer 4

It all has to due with what company you work for, and as the beginning of most work weeks, overtime isn't usually an issue. You may look into premium pay for Sunday's or getting reimbursed for mileage if you used your own car....

Answer 5

If Sunday or a holiday is not part of your assigned work week, yet if you have to travel on those days, you should get paid for all of your travel time.

Answer 6

is it work related. if not then no
