an employer cannot allow you to volunteer time in an employee type situation so, there are no volunteer hours. There are only hours that have been worked and paid and hours that have been worked and not been paid.Pays for the hours worked under contract or the volunteer hours?
What if the company wants to give a part ownership role to the employee, so he becomes a shareholder with a position on the board of the company. He is still an employee because it is a corporation but he is also a part owner.
Example: right now the sole shareholder of the corporation is working many hours unpaid, but it is his company. Could the same scenario be adopted if the employee wanted to become a partner in the company?
What if the worker does so without approval from management. How can the company protect itself? For example, a contract that states this? (and my addition: how can a worker volunteer without the approval of management and have a contract addressing the possibility of the worker "volunteering"? Kind of beats the Hell out of any right of deniability on the employers part)
In other words, employee could volunteer additional hours unbeknownst to management and then if fired try to claim breach of this law.
