Question about overtime at Nuance - AnnieOakley

Posted: Jul 29, 2011

If it is true that full time is 35 hours, then anything over that is counted as overtime if you do 220 lph?

A few years ago at WMX, full time was considered 35 hours a week, but you didn't get overtime unless you worked over 40 hours a week.

Ah, the good old days, and I'm pretty sure that's how - it has to be at Nuance. In this case, "full

time" means the minimum required to get benefits. A "standard" work week is still 40 hours. (BTW, can you imagine how the 40-hourers would feel if others were paid OT at 35?)

Nuance raised it's hours from 30 hours a week to 35 hours a week to be eligible for benefits. I am sure you will need to work 40 hours to be eligible for OT. That is a department of labor standard across the boad. Be sure to notify you team lead anytime you are out of work. If it happens enough, they may assign you another account to help get you up to the 35 hours. My TL has always been great about this. Wish you the best!

Ask you TL where the shifts are that need the most help. Third shift on my accounts are getting slammed. Last nights are difficult when you work during the day, but try to work a little after 11 pm or around 4 am EST. It might make up the difference. Just a thought! Or ask TL if you can work some on your day off. If you work third shift hours, the pay is better and it might puch you over the hump to 35 hours. Also previous poster is correct. ALWAYS let your TL know you are out of work. They do assign additional accounts! At least my TL does. Don't know what I would do without her. Can't sing her praises enough!!!

I work second shift, so, due to the time change from PST to CST, after 10 pm my time, the last hour of my shift shows up as the next day. I worked 1.5 hours this morning and then my regular 2:30-11 pm shift, so I figure I should be paid for 1.5 hours overtime, but my calculated time (I recently discovered this on the current time card page) shows me as only getting credit for 0.5 hours overtime with 8 RT (Regular time) + 0.5 OT hours showing up on Sunday and then 1 hour showing up on Monday as ...

I know when I call in to have work assigned (OT accounts) they always ask what kind I want. I usually just tell them "Whatever" and they confirm I do all work types, say thank you and away we go. Now I am wondering. Seems like after we have had OT on my accounts the next day there is a MUCH higher than normal ratio of crappy dictators. Are the people working OT the day/night before allowed to choose to not do those dictators? I had one of the support staff th ...

Not only cut in pay, it seems like the OT is no longer time and a half. I can't believe the amount of money I have lost. Anyone know how they figure overtime?? Also, I seemed to notice that whenever we complain about FIESA, like about them picking short reports, it seems to happen even more. It makes me think they probably read this forum too and get a good laugh out of it. Sorry, but I tend to believe they resent us because we make more money than they ...

Could the suits be so devious as to require mandatory overtime so it temporarily boosts income so they look like they are paying a living wage? Or is there just a supply/demand problem? I did check into mandatory or forced overtime. It is legal as long as it is not causing a safety risk and there are 16 states putting restrictions on forced overtime. Alaska, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New Hampshire, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Isl ...

To the company who asks for overtime on a continual basis: Let me tell you how my day goes. I work third shift for you, do my 8 hours then get my 2 kids, age 5 and 7, up for school, take maybe a 4-5 hour nap and get up and start my part time job for another 4 hours, which I have to maintain because you do not pay me enough on my full time job to make any money, it is very difficult jumping around on several accounts, doing every work type imaginable and just basically skating by. & ...
