Scheduled off but am working to make up for an unscheduled day - will I just get straight time or is there holiday pay?

You are an IC -- you should probably already know the answer to that question, which is no unfortunately.
No, straight time - sm - Anon

To get time and a half for a holiday, we have to request HTO from our holiday cache. Employees accumulate 3 types of PTO, sick, vacation, and holiday. When you work a holiday and work, say 8 hours, you then request 4 hours' worth of lines. Since you're an IC, you don't have any PTO. Sorry to say, you're out of luck.
I kind of figured but wanted to double check - New at this IC thing nm
Did all of you have a wonderful holiday with your family or did you get to sit in front of your computer all day waiting for work to come in? If the latter, then here's a suggestion. On Webclock punch in when you started waiting and punch out at the end of your shift, unless by some small miracle you got enough work to make more than minimum wage for your shift. It's legal, it's truthful timekeeping and they must pay you for it. This will at the ve ...
I seem to be spending an awful lot of time in VR documents, so I am confused as to why I am getting paid less for them. This stupid VR system types whatever it thinks it might be hearing and sometimes doesn't type anything at all. I hate this VR. I am up to 1800 lines but usually do 2200-2500 a day on straight transcription. I don't know how I am going to feed my children. I am a single mom and the head of household. Believe me the child support isn& ...
Here's the deal...my company says if/when you work a holiday, they will give you the equivalent hours in PTO to use later on (you work 8, you get 8 PTO). I checked with my state's DOL, and they said absolutely incorrect. You must be an exempt salaried employee for them to do this. They must pay regular employees cash money. The DOL also said that unless the company is a licensed health care facility in my state, which they are not--they only contract with ...
15 PTOs full time per year. Do we get Memorial Day or any holidays on top of that? If I look hard enough I could probably see it in all the paperwork, but it is Friday and I am lazy. Thank you very much! ...
I generally work every holiday, and most of the time the work is rather low, but today it has been rather brisk. Thinking that I might actually make a decent wage today, I was trying to remember how our holiday pay was set up or if Memorial Day was counted as one of their "holdidays."
After searching my own files as well as ENRICH I finally found it: It is. We get the enormous increase of.... wait for it.... 25%! Wow. So, for editing that's just ar ...

Last holiday (Labor Day) I was paid a differential. It is usually time and a half so going by your base you will see an additional line on your paystub of holiday lines: ex. if your base rate is 0.08 you will see holiday pay 0.1200 x 1000 lines. As far as I know, we have not received any notification that we do not get holiday pay. ...
me where to find the holiday request off rule --not more than 60 days or something like that. I cant find it on MQ Central. If you know the rule or how to find it on MQ Central that would be great!! ...
Hi. My CCM sent out an email saying that work loads were going to be low because of the holiday and that we could take PTO for Monday if we wanted. My question is what if you don't have PTO? Does that mean you have to work the holiday or can you still request it off and just not get paid for it? I would ask CCM but she said she would be very busy and wouldn't be able to keep up with emails.
Thanks ...
I have always gotten paid time-and-a-half for holiday pay on the Fourth of July, which is one of Medquist's holidays (or so it is listed as and always has been), and was told by CCM we would be paid time-and-a-half for that Monday's work done since even though it wasn't the fourth, it is when it is nationally celebrated. However, on today's paycheck I did not get any holiday pay at all!!! I went back several years to check and I always got paid this way for w ...
Reading the material about benefits they sent me, they are pretty vague about holiday pay, so what is it - time and a half? 1.5 x lines typed? 1.5 x reports ? Or is it a percentage of that day's production? I've had holidays paid in so many different ways at so many different companies nothing would surprise me, I just want to know. ...
I'm confused about holidays with Nuance. I was told I had to work either Thanksgiving or Christmas when I was hired, but not both. Now I'm getting emails that no UNPAID time off will be granted. I have no PTO right now, so am I to assume I have to work all day on Thanksgiving AND Christmas since they fall on my regularly-scheduled days??? ...
