    Default Overtime Law for an On-Call, Non-Exempt Employee

    My question involves employment and labor law for the state of: I am a hourly supervisor . My place of employment requires me to be on call 24 / 7 . No set restrictions other than responding in 20 min .. If have to go out of town or emergency arises I have to call my supervisor to inform him of my situation. Then I have a point my asst sup to take over ..my question is shouldn't I be getting paid for being on call 24/7 I do have to schedule my personal time around this . Second if I do get called in I get an automatic 2 hrs but my employer will make me go home so I will not have over time .. same goes to my maintenance crew .. Our hours are set mon- Fri 700 am to 330 pm Saturday an Sunday I I have to wait around an guess if I'm going to get a call or not .. Also if I stay past my schedule hours I have to go home to prevent over time.

    What state are you in? It is asked for a reason. Labor laws vary from state to state.

    However, in NO state does the law require that you be paid simply for being on call.
