Legal Question in Employment Law in Illinois

About Overtime pay
I got my pay check today, �bi-weekly� from 12/16/2006 to 12/29/2006 .

On my pay check shown like this:

Holiday pay : 8 (hours)

Regular wage: 75 (hours)

Vacation pay : 4 (hours)

During that two weeks I worked overtime 7 hours, the regular wage should be 68 hours and overtime 7 hours.

I went to talk to HR manager. She told me that I didn�t get pay overtime because my regular work time didn�t pass 80 hours. She said I have to be physically worked in the office 80 hours, regular wage NOT INCLUDED holiday time and vacation time? She said that is the law.

I worked overtime because my manager asked me to.

What should I do?

Please help,

Thanks a lot,

Re: About Overtime pay

Only hours ACTUALLY WORKED must be counted in determining whether an employee is eligible for overtime pay.
