Loading software on your computer is often a requirement before you start your shift. Many employers do not count this time towards your hour worked, which is unfair because these extra minutes every day add up. These ten to fifteen minutes per day add up to hours a month and most employees are entitled to receive overtime pay for the additional time spent at work.
However, many employers do not consider the work day started until the software is loaded and the computer is up and running. This can be a violation of federal overtime pay laws.
Federal law requires time and a half pay to most employees who worm more than 40 hours per week. It may not seem like much time loading software, but these extra minutes do add up to often more than 40 hours per week. When this happens, the employer is required to pay overtime to the employee. However, many employees either refuse this overtime pay or simply do not include the extra wages in the pay check.
