[QUOTE="km3, post: 2346828, member: 56117"] Yep, every local seems to have a different practice. I'm lucky enough to be in one of the good ones. Every minute past 5 hours is OT, regardless of whether you work one shift or multiple shifts (in contrast to what you seem to be saying about your location). 6th punch is all OT, and 7th punch is all double time. No going back to straight time after reaching 8 hours or other nonsense like that. The only weird thing about where I am is how inside work and helping seem to be divided into completely different classifications. The two can't be added together to get OT where I am. Theoretically, if you worked exactly 5 hours on preload (or another shift), and exactly 5 hours as a helper, you wouldn't get any OT pay even though you worked 10 hours (more than 5 and 8). But if you worked 8.5 hours as a helper, and 5 hours preload, or if you worked 5.5 hours preload and 8 hours helping, you'd still get 0.5 hours worth of OT pay at 1.5x the applicable rate. The fact that you can work up to 13 hours without getting OT is pretty dumb, but it can easily be avoided by staying inside the building instead of doing an inside+helper combo. [/QUOTE]
