Yes. This is the actual status quo. Whether salaried or not. Hubby's company paid HUGE penalties for not paying overtime to legally entitled employees when a lawsuit was filed years ago. After it was over, they made pro-rated mass payments to people across the department whether they filed or not. Lot of HUGE paychecks that month. HUGE. Tens of thousands of dollars.
But that was all overtime. As for holidays - depending on how many hours worked within that week, they'd get standard overtime. If they worked less than 37.5 (the company's standard week) then they got regular time up to 40. Then time and half over 40. If they were entitled to overtime pay. When I worked in retail, I got time and half on Sundays and double time on a holiday. But - that was over 20 years ago. It really boils down to a company by company kinda thing.
