Contractors in Tech are generally not given time and a half in my experience. You don't qualify.

- UncleOxidant 4y agoI'm paid an hourly rate on W2 through an agency so I'm pretty sure I do qualify.
- adamsmith143 4y agoIf you are in a Tech job then you most likely don't. https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/17e-overtime-computer https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/17e-overtime-co...
- UncleOxidant 4y agoOk, it looks like you're right. When did that change? Because I can remember times in the past where I was specifically told not to go over 40 hours so as to avoid overtime and it doesn't seem that long ago.
- adamsmith143 4y agoNot sure, it's been like that as long as I've been working. You can still get paid for more than 40 hours but not time and a half. Orgs usually have a hard cap on Contractor expenses so it's not easy to get approved to go over those 40 hours per week.
