Labor Law question
I work for a local company for 15 years. For the past 10 years (or so) I have been working as a salaried manager. I am required to work 45 to 50 hours for my salaried pay. When I am allowed overtime, (anything over 50 hours), they pay me less than my normal hourly average. When I ask about it, they tell me it's because they are seasonal. This has been going on for YEARS. What can I do about it? I've always assumed that salaried employees don't get overtime, but recently I've heard otherwise.

Re: Labor Law question
The term "salary" has limited legal significance. What matters for purposes of overtime is what your job actually requires of you. You should email my office, msarelson@sarelson-shafir.com or call, and I'll have some specific questions for you. You may be entitled to significant back pay. Best, Matthew
