Seeking Guidance
I have worked for a non-profit for over 10 years. We do not have an official human resource office or officer. My job requires that I travel quite a bit including overnights. In a years time I spent nearly 30 days overnight be it at a training/conference/workshop/retreat. My first 8 years were as a non-exempt Employee. And now I am an exempt employee. Now that we are under new management I know now that a non-exempt employee who works over their 40 hours a week get paid time and 1/2 if they work more than 8 hours a week. Should I be seeking back pay for all of my overtime during those first 8 years. I would like to add that the former director was kindly removed from their position after learning of their mismanagement on every level.
