If they have discovered (cough cough) that they were treating you more as an employee rather than a contractor, they could have made the change to statutory employee.  You still have some schedule say and they withhold federal taxes, pay their share of SocSec/Medicare, and are SUPPOSED to be paying federal unemployment tax.


I don't see where a union has ANYTHING to do with it.

Time clocks for compliance
In order to comply with the law, you almost have to make time clocks mandatory. How else can you know whether an employee has worked OT? That's what Spheris and MQ do; they're too big to risk getting into trouble over OT nonpayment. Lot's of MT's don't like punching time clocks, but if you want overtime, you will need to be on the clock.
Overtime is calculated in Elabor, in compliance with federal law....
We enter our hours into Elabor each day, and OT is calculated. Right now, with a slow workload, I doubt overtime is approved. As a matter of fact, it is not approved.
