COMPLETED Please Have Your Employee Submit Their Timesheet for Pay Period March 15Th – March 28Th up to 40Hrs Worked 40 Broad Street Boston, Massachusetts 02109 July 9th, 2020 Hello, We wanted to provide you an update to our last communication that was sent on May 19th, in response to COVID-19, Missouri Department of Mental Health (DMH) has directed Public Partnerships to temporally allow employees in the Missouri Self-Directed Supports (MO SDS) program to submit timesheets containing more than 40-hours per week. We have now finished the work for all 5 phases to allow for our system to pay overtime over 40 hours for any timesheets that were processed since March 9th. These retroactive overtime payments will be processed and paid on Thursday, July 9th. PLEASE REMEMBER: As communicated prior, you may authorize your employees to work more than 40 hours per week when needed for reasons related to COVID-19. If you have questions please contact the regional office Self-Direct Support Coordinator. You must remain within the Individual’s budget. If you have questions regarding the Individual’s budget, please contact the regional office Self-Direct Support Coordinator. If you had an emergency and employee(s) needed to work more than 40 hours in a week, please have them submit the additional hours now, dating back to March 9th. Once these additional hours have been submitted, please review them for accuracy before approving. Current and future timesheets can now be submitted, approved, and paid in the event that more than 40 hours are worked in a given week. This rule will be lifted until further notice. Phase 1 - COMPLETED Please have your Employee submit their timesheet for pay period March 15th – March 28th up to 40hrs worked. Approve the timesheet so there is no disruption in your Employee’s payment scheduled for April 10th • If you have a timesheet that you can’t submit because it is over 40, please have your employees submit their current timesheet up to 40hrs as soon as possible. • Please follow steps in Phase 2 for the hours over 40. Phase 2 - COMPLETED • Please have your Employees submit their additional hours dating back to the documented date of the emergency. But no earlier than March 9, 2020. • Any hours over 40 need to be submitted by the Employee and approved by the Individual/Designated Representative. 40 Broad Street | Boston, Massachusetts 02109 • These timesheets will be paid on either our next regular or next off-cycle payrolls (off cycle pays on the Friday’s in-between regular payroll Fridays). When these timesheets reflecting hours over 40 will be paid, will depend on when the timesheets are submitted and approved according the payroll schedule. • Once the 40-hour rule is lifted, you will not have to submit a secondary timesheet. Phase 3 - COMPLETED • You can now submit all time, including Overtime on the timesheet • We will then be able to pay any hours submitted over 40 using the agreed-upon straight time pay rate. For Example: If your Employee earns a rate of $10.00 per hour per week and worked 50 hours in the week: PPL will pay a gross payment of 50 hours times $10.00 per hours = $500.00 Phase 4 - COMPLETED • Allow for any new timesheets submitted to include overtime premium in payment to your Employee. • As of now, May 19th, 2020, if your Employee works over 40 hours in a work week, they will be paid straight time and premium rate time. For Example: If your Employee worked for $10.00 per hour for 50 hours per week their pay would be $10.00 X 40 Hours = $400.00 + $15.00 (1.5x pay rate) X 10 Hours = $150.00 for a total gross payment of $550.00. Phase 5 - COMPLETED • We have completed this work to pay your Employees overtime half-pay rate for all outstanding overtime owed since March 9th. This payment for your employees will be processed and posted on Thursday, July 9th. For Example: If your Employee earns a rate of $10.00 per hour per week and worked 50 hours in the week, their premium rate owed is $5.00: PPL will pay a supplemental gross payment of 10 hours times $5.00 per hour = $50.00 for that week’s overtime half-pay. We are excited that we have completed all five phases of this work to process overtime payments for your employees. Public Partnerships has been committed to helping you and your employees through these difficult times. We will be sure to message you in the future as further changes are made to overtime. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please call or email our customer service team at: Email: [email protected] or Phone: 1-844-735-7370 We’ll get through this together! 2 .

    U - ~~~~ / ~~ 0?~/~' THE COMPTRO ER GENERAL DECISION & |FO THE UNITED STATES WASHINGTON, D. C. 20548 FILE: B-201252, B-201250, DATE: September 22, 1981 B-203524, and B-204298 MATTER OF: James Jones, et al. - Overtime pay - Evidence to support claim DIGEST: In the absence of official records, claimsI of Army employees for overtime pay may be paid under best available evidence rule to the extent that the work schedules substan- tiate the employees' claims. The issue presented here is whether the evidence submitted by 22 employees of the Food Service Division, Womack Army Hospital, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, for overtime pay, for the years prior to 1975, is suffi- cient to support their claims. For the reasons set forth below, we hold that the evidence is sufficient to support payment of the claims. These claims arose out of our decision, Council and Washburn, 58 Comp. Gen. 347 (1979), in which we held that these same employees who frequently worked two 8-hour shifts within a 24-hour period, but not within the same calendar day, were entitled to over- time compensation for work in excess of 8 hours during the "day" which was defined in the collective-bargain- ing agreement. The record showed that since 1968 the Food Service Division scheduled its employees on an "early/late" tour of duty involving two overlapping shifts, 0500 to 1330 and 1100 to 1930 daily. It was determined that approximately four times per pay period, employees who worked the 1100 to 1930 shift one day would work the 0500 to 1330 shift the fol- lowing day.

  • Strategy & Insights
    Strategy & Insights Energy Employment Law Group Guidance For Employers In The Energy Industry To Avoid Common Wage & Hour Traps Through aggressive investigation and enforcement initiatives, the Department of Labor has recently intensified its scrutiny of employers in the oil-and-gas industry. Among other things, the DOL is looking for employees who have been misclassified as independent contractors, while inspecting employers’ pay practices to ensure compliance with the often-Byzantine wage-and-hour laws. These investigations have resulted in some employers paying large settlements to the DOL (while enjoying unwanted media attention). Even if they don’t involve your company directly, that can make your business sector—and thus your company—a target for private collective- or class-action lawsuits. To avoid these risks and ensure compliance, you need to know about three wage-and-hour traps that are common in the energy industry. TRAP NO. 1: FAILING TO PAY OVERTIME ON TOP OF DAY RATES AND SHIFT RATES Day-Rate Plans Come With a Common and Costly Wage-and-Hour Trap Day-rate plans are common in the oil-and-gas industry. Mud-logging technicians, riggers, roughnecks, welders, and various other craft workers are often paid a fixed sum for each 10-, 12-, or 24-hour shift. But many employers mistakenly believe that paying their nonexempt employees a fixed day or shift rate eliminates the need to track hours or to pay overtime compensation. This is a common wage-and-hour trap. Failing to identify and remedy this frequent mistake will make your company a potential target for class- or collective-action lawsuits and costly investigations by the DOL.

  • B-208628 [Claims for Retroactive Overtime Under Federal Labor
    c FILE: B-208268 DATE: November 16, 1982 MATTER OF: Jon Clifford, --et al. - Claims for Retroactive Overtime Under FLSA DIGEST: 1. Army disputes entitlement of recruiting specialists to retro- active overtime payments under Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Where employees were considered exempt by agency in 1974 but Office of Personnel Management ruled otherwise in 1979, employees are entitled to over- time pay retroactive to 1974, subject to the 6-year statute of limitations. The statute of limitations is tolled only by filing claims in this Office. 2. Army questions sufficiency of evidence to support retroactive claims of overtime under FLSA. In the absence of official records, employee must show amunt and extent of overtime by reasonable inference. Once employee has met the burden of proof, the burden shifts to the agency to rebut the evidence. The issues in this decision involve the entitle- ment of 17 civilian employees of the Army to retro- active payments for overtime under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). We hold that t5e employees are entitled to retroactive payrents based on a deterrci- nation by the Office ~f Personnel Management over-' ruling the agency on their exemption under the FLSA. These claims are subject to a 6-year statute of limitations and, in the absence of official records, these claims must be supported by scbstantlal evidence as provided by the enployees, subject to rebuttal by the agency. B-208268 BACKGROUND This decision is in respohse to a request from Major P. R. Bergeron, Finance and Accounting Officer, Headquarters Fort Devens, Department of the Army.
