Overtime
The company I used to work for was on a bi-monthly payroll, which was the 1st -15th, and 16th - end of the month.
My question is, I was paid for a consistent 106-108 hours every pay period (4hrs SU, 8hrs M-TH, 2 1/2 F, 7hrs Sat, *A couple times an extra 30min-1 1/2hr were put in a week)
Many times I did not receive any over time, if I did receive overtime it was typically 3-6 hours, shouldn't I be owed more overtime?
I was told by the company that there format worked like this;
Example is January 2007;
1st (Mon) - 6th (Sat) 1 week
7th (Sun) - 13th (Sat) 1 week
14th (Sun) - 15th (Mon) - applied to next pay period
16th (Tue) - 20th (Sat) 1 week
21st (Sun) - 27th (Sat) 1 week
28th (Sun) - 31st - applied to next pay period (Feb 1st-15th)
I've spoken to companies who use the same pay period, and there pay period is much easier to follow, and days do not carry over to the next pay period/month. Is this company wrong, and could I possibly be owed money?
