David, I am with you. In fact, I sent this issue to outside counsel earlier
this week because I simply wasn't able to get to it due to the issues
surrounding the latest reorg/redeployment efforts. I expect an answer by
Monday or Tuesday. Sorry I forgot to let you know about the status. Michelle

Michelle,

This is the first of 2 messages.. We have been trying to get a response on
this since April, I understand you are very busy, as are we, is there someone
you can assign to us to work on these issues? Some type of response would be
appreciated.

Thanks - David

Michelle,

This is the first of 2 messages we are looking for your input on, can you
advise when can we anticipate a response to Diane's questions? At this point
it is too late to make configuration changes for the 7/1 go-live but we
wanted to get your feedback so that if we are not in compliance we can get
the corrections on the schedule for post 7/1.

Your assistance, as always, is greatly appreciated.

Thanks - David

Michelle,

Have you had a chance to look at this question? We are needing to finalize
the configuration and wanted to make sure that we had everything in line.

Thanks,
Diane

Michelle,

We have had a couple of interpretations as to how to calculate the overtime
for employees who receive a shift differential and wanted to ask for
assistance from you. The problem we are having deals with employees who
rotate shift. Please review the following scenario.

For a simple example with an ee at $10/hour and shift of $1/hour for the
Night (N) shift.


M T W Th F S

REG 8 8 8 8 8
OT 8
SHIFT N N D D D D


Interpretation 1

The shift differential would be added to his pay to determine the regular
rate of pay and his pay would be calculated as follows:

REG $400
SHIFT 16
OT 124.80 ((400+16)/40) x 1.5)


Interpretation 2

Since his overtime was during a day shift, his pay would be calculated as
follows:

REG $400
SHIFT 16
OT 120.00 (400/40 x 1.5)

Can you please let us know which interpretation is correct or if we have
totally missed the boat on both of them?

Thanks for your help,
Diane
