What is the name of your state? GA
hi ,
As per the "Service Contract Act Directory of Occupations"
ref: http://www.dol.gov/esa/regs/compliance/whd/wage/p07090.htm
the below is my occupation at a restaurant.
07090 FAST FOOD WORKER (Crew person, Team member, Associate)
A nonsupervisory full-or part-time worker in a fast food restaurant who performs one or more repetitious and standardized tasks at an assigned station. Duties include one or more of the following: Preparing simple food items such as french fries, fish or chicken portions, hamburgers, and beverages in a highly standardized manner, often controlled by automatic or simple timing devices; taking customers' orders; filling orders; and collecting payment. May rotate among stations. May also clean equipment or premises.
The restaurant is a franchisee and it opened less than 6 months back.
There are 6 employees working at the restaurant and doing the same jobs .
Two of the employees (including my self ) work on salaried basis working full time for 12hrs/ day for 6 days (total hrs worked = 72) . But it goes to 90 hrs . We 2 people get paid $470 after taxes.
The other employees work part time (ie between 25-45 hrs a week ) and get paid hourly $6/hr .
I did some research on the DOL website and i read that you can only be paid salary if you are management , executive and outdoor sales and professional , but i am neither . It also says that to be considered management position you cannot perform more than 40% doing non-management task and a manager is a person who has power to hire-fire , etc ...
i am exhausted after working for so long , do i have any rights !!!
Is there anything i can do .. i know most of you would tell me leave and look for another job ( please let me know something besides that)..
