So referencing the above table. I get paid bi-weekly working 12 hour shifts. so first week is 48 hours and second week is 36 hours. company has full benefit package which both parties put money in for.
the company takes 4 hours from wk 1 and adds it to wk 2. then pays me 4 hours o/t on wk 1. this has been going on for a long time. discussions with company officials about this practice have yielded answers ranging from it has to be done because of how they pay benefits, to it would be illegal to not do it this way. there has been other issues that came up and human resource managers from other companies have said what they are doing is not legal. I am wanting to know if this is a legal practice. before i put my job at risk by going head to head with them over this.
