Re: [Histonet] Salary exempt/nonexempt status

2014-10-25 Thread Rene J Buesa
hings are usually different in CA but in FL this is more or less as it works:1- 
if you are Supervisor or Manager, even when you have to clock in/out no matter 
how many ours extra you work, you do not get paid overtime over your salary.2- 
if you are "bench worker" you clock in/out and IF you work more than 40 hours 
week the difference = overtime if you work less than 40 hours week = your are 
paid for the worked hours. Even if you some days work  >8 hours you may be 
scheduled to work <8 hours some other days to compensate.I remember that when I 
retired I calculated that I had worked in excess of 3 YEARS unpaid because I 
was manager (life is tough!)René J.

If you are paid a salary but NOT a supervisor or manager are you considered 
exempt or nonexempt? 

I was told by someone that if you are salary but not in a managerial position 
you are considered nonexempt and are entitled to earn OT.

I have tried searching the laws in CA and the only thing I could find is: 1. If 
you earn twice the wage of minimum wage you are exempt. 2.  If you are a type 
of professional (doctors and lawyers etc) or in a managerial position you are 
exempt

With that being said, I believe a lot of people in the U.S with other 
professions make twice the wage of #1, so does that mean they are all exempt? 

Please help me answer this question!

Thank you in advance!

Are you paid a. by the hour or was your pay quoted to you by b. yearly salary? 
C. Do you fill out a time card to record your hours?  If A and C are yes, you 
are non exempt. Your human resource department should have the answer. If you 
don't have an HR dept and you cant ask your boss to clarify, then you have a 
crummy relationship with your boss, and should look for a better job.

RE: [Histonet] Salary exempt/nonexempt status

2014-10-25 Thread Sebree Linda A
I fought this very same battle having been salaried for many years and 
gradually working more and more OT.  I worked solely with hourly employees and 
was not a manager or supervisor.  Everyone I worked with accrued OT pay but I 
did not and I was usually working the most OT.  I contacted our state office of 
labor and workforce development and learned about the exempt/nonexempt 
statuses.  Upon bringing this information to both my institution's personnel 
department and eventually my manager, they reviewed my position description 
along with several other employees.  They resolved the issue by making me and 
some other people hourly with no cut in pay so now I still work some overtime 
but accrue OT pay.  I also received back pay from 2 years of overtime.  

Maybe CA has a labor department that could help you as well.

Good luck,

Linda A. Sebree

Hi
I am still recommending VIP5 for you
I have:
Tissue Tek VIP5 Jr
Leica   AS 6025
And Leica TP1020
Both of Tissue Tek and Leica are very good but according to your little volume 
(less than 100 cassette daily), VIP5 Jr are your suitable machine.

*Regarding processors*

*I also need to help on determine which processor for our core. Our
majority tissue is bone. *
*Right now, we like VIP serials because of vacuum/pressure plus agitation.
Please help me*
*on this VIP processor, I never used this kind one. We are very small
volume*
*core, also do frozen and plastic undecal bone. We have a Shandon Excelsior
now and feel the *
