The the math should be doable for you since you know what you worked in the past.

Just figure out what you got paid less weekend time. That will be the base you use for the original comparison, let's call them the apples. Then figure what your weekend work would have been under the old plan. We can call them the oranges.

Lather, rinse, repeat with the new weekend plan.

here is what I see,

you say you worked 405 hours on saturday and sunday last year with 294 being on Sunday. That leaves 111 for saturday pay

If you got paid 29.75 per hour, that means:

Saturday- 111*44.63= ~4953
Sunday - 294*59.5= ~17,493
That Total is roughly 22,446 in weekend pay. The base pay was around 75,554.

I would ask for 80,000 as a salaried position because that would make the hourly around 38.50/hr

38.50*111=~4273(since you will make straight time)
57.75*294=~`17000 (making time and a half)

That will get you a little over 100 grand , assuming you keep the same hours working - leaving some wiggle room in there to maintain the 98k you made before

off the top of my head, your numbers don't make sense in general ,i don't understand how @40/hrs a week of normal pay, you end up with 75k making only 29.75 an hour

Thanks hope for the best. I'll let you know how it works out.

It is entirely possible the company is expecting a pay cut. Just saying. That's not a legal question either, not exactly.
Or, an increase in hours worked for the same pay. I know that, technically, that's also a "pay cut".
