Hey there,

I'm in a pickle and I can't find the correct information for this.

If we have a regularly salaried employee, who decides to work in our tasting room/bar on the weekends, are we able to pay him a base hourly wage as well for just this position?

[Curlyben]

Probably come under the heading of over time.

Can you further explain? I didn't quite understand that.

[Curlyben]

Overtime - hours worked over and above your normal contract.

[crazymtn]

Right sorry. Should've clarified. They are salaried exempt and they will be working to pick up tips at our tasting room.

We have salaried people working parttime hourly position, nights and weekends. This is a separate job for them and treated separately.

So salaried exempt, with an added hourly base + tips. Yes, I'd do what ScottGem has mentioned.
Beware of some state laws, however. If you are really concerned about something like insurance liability and there's a chance that a claim would be denied if someone is working too many hours for safety, you might want to consult a labor lawyer in your state, as well as your comp carrier.
