For almost 31 years I have been employed at a seed corn company as a skilled laborer and have always received time and a half for overtime hours. My employer has stopped paying time and a half for overtime. Is this legal?:confused:

What exactly are your duties? And what exactly does a seed corn company do?

Basically, I do almost everything involving the operation of the company as follows: drive semi, operate fork truck & other equipment, train new employees, do truck & equipment maintenance, run seed house, make up & schedule loads, work in warehouse, and manage seed fields & crews during detassling to name just a few of my duties.

This is outside of my area of expertise, but I am thinking that maybe the Agricultural exceptions may be in play.

Are you thinking this simply because it is a seed corn company? I am not classified as an "agricultural worker", I am a "skilled laborer". I am not a farmer's hired hand.

So they used to pay you time and a half, but are no longer doing that?

Did you ask why they changed the practice?
