It's based on number of hours worked, rather than hourly vs. salary. The Affordable Healthcare Act defines the number at 30 hours a week for more than 120 days a year where an employer must offer insurance.
- jonplackett 6y agoThat’s interesting. Thanks. In that case hourly work really does seem better, if you can get it reliably anyway.
- walshemj 6y agoNormally beyond a certain seniority point you become salaried in the uk almost all Managerial or Professional jobs are salaried.
- lotsofpulp 6y agoIt’s not all employers though, only those with 50 or more employees.
- stonesweep 6y agoInterestingly, at my company it's based on skill level - everyone works the ~40hr work week, however skill tiers 1-2 are hourly employees and skill tiers 3+ are salaried. On average, the company encourages a healthy work/life balance and > 40 is not normal even for salaried, so it's really specific to how the company staffs their needs.
