I was curious as to what everyone does here (or your company does) in regards to IT staff and salaries. I'm not management, but when it comes to anything IT related I'm the go to guy. I know there is a lot of gray area in regards to how salary and overtime works especially in relation to IT work.
>From what I can tell according to the department of labor unless your primary job is a systems developer, analyst, programmer, etc your employer is required to pay you overtime unless you are management. We have IT Technicians who are salary, but they are going to have to start working overtime soon. I believe the company is required to pay them overtime, but I'm meeting some strong opposition on this. I've read even if there is an agreement between the employee and employer, or the salary is based on 50 hours, these types of agreements are restricted by the department of labor. Anyone have any thoughts, or even better, experience with such things? Thanks!
