answers 0:I work for a dental office, and the Dr. I work for is a total ***. Basically he requires us to be there at 5:45 in the morning and we are there till 8:30/9:30 every night after he has already gone home. They don't pay me overtime, and they pay me on salary. Which is bullshit in itself. But please someone help. I live in Illinois if that helps. And I feel like I'm completely being taken advantage of. I have a family so I have no choice but to stay there. I wouldn't have a problem working there if it wasn't keeping me away from my family 80 hours a week without proper compensation for everything we do. Thanks....Show moreanswers 1:This is why they are paying you a salary. Keeps them from having to pay overtime. In Indiana an employer can work you no more than 16hrs in a 24hr period. Sucks, but! legal.answers 2:You are a free person. If you don't like your working conditions, exercise your rights and leave. How on Earth do you expect someone on a public forum to help you with this? The only person worth speaking to is your boss.answers 3:You definitely have a right for overtime pay. My father works 16 hours a day, but he does make alot of overtime money. You should confront your boss. If he does not comply, you can sue him.answers 4:first there is no law in any state that says you cant work 14 or 24 hours a day, the gross income of the business may preclude you from ot, some businesses are exempt from OT and lastly if you are classified as an exempt employee because of a managerial or professional status. call your states labor board concerning your status, the hours you cant do anything about only the OT.answers 5:Look for a new job right away...
