For TL, we're required to work a certain amount of OT hours per team but only actual hours over 40 per handler count toward the total. So if you take PTO your hours dont count toward the total. They tried to say it's related to being over budget and trying to limit expenses, but how does that add up? Paying people regular time vs time and a half is obviously cheaper. Any leadership willing to tell the real reason behind this weird rule? Sounds like someone's trying to drive up the expense for the last quarter.

Overtime law. Nothing devious about it. Actually protects worker from working more than 40 hours and not being compensated as OT.
