My question involves employment and labor law for the state of: Massachusetts
I am an exempt employee working 40 hrs. week. in an outpatient office that is part of a larger hospital. I am required to punch in, but not punch out. Thus, there is no record of my actual hours worked. There are weeks that I work overtime and I do not receive any compensation or credit time for that. On the days that my work is finished, there are no patients to see, or our office closes due to inclement weather, I cannot leave early unless I use ETO.
Additionally, if you do not have any ETO to use, we were told that we would not be paid for missed hours from a partial day of work (even in the case of leaving early due to inclement weather.) We were also told that we could not make up missed hours by working more hours the following week.
Our pay is treated as hourly in this regard, but we are told we are salaried/exempt otherwise. It just seems like our employer is trying to have it both ways. What can we expect for exempt employee rights in this situation?
