I am a salaried employee that is required to work 9-10 hours per day.
On our time card, they only want to see 8 hours per day = 40 hours per week
regardless of what we actually work (could be more, could be less).

In addition, we are paid on a monthly basis.

I have 2 questions:

1. is there any federal and or state law that would require me to record what I actually work and not the 8 hours per day that they require?

2. Is there any federal and or state law that would require us to be paid on a set interval. (The company does not post our paydays. sometimes we may be paid on the 25th of the month and sometimes on the 30th. This is never known from month to month.)

Thanks

According to Maine state regulations, you must be paid at regular intervals, not to exceed 16 days. Are you only paid once a month? If so, that is illegal.

As a salaried employee, your employer does not need to track your hours. If they are asking you to a schedule of 40 hours, it is probably due to their bookkeeping/payroll system. It is not illegal as long as you are an exempt employee.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
