LEGAL EASE QUESTION OF THE WEEK |
|

|
|
Our HR department has questions about staffing up during holidays. Typically back office or perhaps drive thru tellers will be working while other staff may have a "holiday." The usual question is whether the individuals working over the holiday/closed period must receive overtime pay (at time and a half or higher).
To find out the answer, click on the flashing question mark. You can also check out our growing database of other Q&As! |
