Anybody else's actual time worked not match clocked time? - dnr
Posted: Jun 13, 2011
Ever since they have changed Schedule Source and now it has a display called today's activity with "actuals" hours, this has not matched the hours shown with the time clock punches and is less than the hours according to the clock punch. The difference adds up to a significant amount over time. I am really suspicious about being jypped paywise.
my hours match exactly - how would ya be jypped paywise?
[ In Reply To ..]we are paid by the line, not hour
not to mention your benefit rate will be higher - sm
[ In Reply To ..]If your hours are less and you still have the same amount of lines typed, you made more per hour.
I wouldn't worry, as soon as they find out you're making more money with your benefit rate than you should, they will fix that in no time. MQ is only good at one thing and thats keeping us from making more than we should.
Hours are important when doing 99% ASR and making less than minimum wage. - Even with making the required line count
[ In Reply To ..]My pay has gone down to half since ASR which is below my state's minimum wage, so MQ has to pay me at least minimum wage, so basically I am getting minimum wage.
BTW, I also did more lines before ASR too many corrections. - No F11 allowed.
[ In Reply To ..]I have already been warned about F11 "abuse" before. Now, with their newest email, basically there is no F11 allowed.
Time in a Bottle - Tick-Tock
[ In Reply To ..]I copied/pasted this information:
ROUNDING-OFF TIME:
In many industries, employers "round" their hourly employees' labor hours to the nearest hour, half-hour or 15-minute increment. The U.S. Department of Labor's Federal Wage Division allows this practice but enforces regulations designed to prevent employers from abusing it and always rounding down to pay employees less than the hours they work.
TIME INCREMENTS:
Federal law permits employers to round an employer's hours up or down by the nearest time increment of 15 minutes, 5 minutes or other block of time. However, the rounding practice must be regulated so that the employer is not always rounding down. If rounding to the nearest quarter hour, for instance, employers must round up to the next quarter hour if the employee has worked eight or more minutes of the 15-minute period and can round down if the employee works seven or less minutes in that time period.
TIME CLOCKS AND WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION:
Some time clocks automatically round an employee's hours. If the employee also keeps written documentation of hours worked, this likely will result in a disparity between written and time clock documentation. As long as the discrepancies are minor, they are not a matter of concern for federal labor regulators.
I'll check further, but still looks significantly different - and not consistent.
[ In Reply To ..]It appears I am losing at least an hour a week. I could buy a loaf of bread, cheap peanut butter and milk for that when I'm at minimum wage.
Time clock has nothing to do with pay, you - MQMT
[ In Reply To ..]get paid by the line, time clock is nothing more than a nuisance to MTs
Yes it does if you are getting minimum wage by default. - Because of ASR pay cut.
[ In Reply To ..]My accounts are now 99% ASR and my pay has been cut in half due to the ASR pay cut which falls below my state's minimum wage and now MQ has had to make up the difference. So, essentially I am being paid hourly minimum wage.
My bad - MQMT
[ In Reply To ..]It has been so long since I made even close to minimum wage that I did not think of that. Personally, I would not stay at a job where I could not get above minimum wage and don't understand why people do except if they are new to MT or not very much experience.

Overtime Because Of The Time Clock Time Zone Change?
Feb 06, 2011
It has been inconvenient, and maybe a bit confusing at times, to check my time card hours for my shift as, because of my time zone, part of my hours show up on the next day because I work 2nd shift. I wonder if I will get overtime for yesterday, even though I did not work overtime. I had to start work several hours early because of maintenance, so all hours were completed before the hour my hours start showing up on the next day. Fine. But the last couple hours of yesterday show up as today, ...
MQ Rehire Policy For Part Time To Full Time
Apr 09, 2011
I worked for MQ full time and then went to part time last year, before finally quitting altogether because of health problems. I seem to remember an obscure policy that if you were full time and then went to part time, you could not go back to full time for a period of at least 1 year. Can anyone verify that for me? IF, and this is a big IF, I were to go back to work for MQ, I would need to be full time. ...

Optiscript Part Time To Full Time

I know they are a small company and do not over hire so I do not know how easily this could be done.

Any insight on this would be greatly appreciated :) ...
