I am an employer in a small company. I would like to allow, but not require, my team to work more hours but the requirement to pay 1.5x the rate for OT kills the idea - we just can't afford it. So the rule designed to "protect" employees is hurting them. Question is....can an agreement be made between the employee and employer to let them voluntarily work more than 40 hours and get paid at regular rate? Then it is a choice they can make to help themselves and the company.
? Thanks!
