How does your work handle OT? Do you get paid straight pay or 1.5x? Does it go towards PTO?
This is my first time putting in some OT and I'm not sure what they do! I'd rather accumulate PTO right now.

Since I am a contract employee, if I book more than 40 hours in a week, I have to get paid at time and half, so I do not work more than 40 hours.
When I was salaried and working in the US, if I earned the same paycheck every week (more or less) regardless of how many hours I worked. We did though, get to take a day off during the week if we had to work the weekend.

Salary so no overtime at all. Only hourly employees get it.

Salaried, so nada. Unless, a major project comes up that we know in advance will take overtime hours to get done on time. We get that sort of overtime paid out, but it has to be approved ahead of time. I've never been in that situation.

Salary - so nothing. If I work 40 hours or 60 hours, I get the same!

I'm salaried, but we get OT pay. I voted straight time, but it's slightly more.

I was salaried at my last job too and got paid 1.5x for approved OT. It depends if you're a exempt or non-exempt employee.

Salary but we can often comp the time within the pay period (a month) and take some time off if approved.

In my old job I was salaried, and either could take comp time within the same biweekly period (it didn't matter when I worked 80 hours as long as I put in all 80), take comp time informally with supervisor's permission but not on the timesheet, or just got nothing

I'm sales/commission.. so nothing!
DH gets time and a half or double time on Sundays.. he get pick if he wants paid out or bank the time for vacation. It's still the time and a half or double time rate though if he banks it.. so if he works 12 hours on a Sunday he can used 24 hours of vacation. But typically he gets paid out because he has lots of vacation time.

I'm salaried, but we have bi-weekly time-sheets. We get paid for overtime over 40 hours as long as it is chargeable. Overtime gets paid quarterly.

I am salaried and we get comp time here. I worked 2.5 days in overtime last week (talk about horrible!) so I took one day of comp time on Friday and I will have another day and a half to use at some point.
At my last job I didn't get anything for working overtime.

I get nothing extra for working overtime. Overtime is kind of just required when you own the business you work for!
Our guys get time and a half or the option of more vacation hours when they work overtime. They are salaried and we just tack on the extra pay on their next paycheck.

I haven't done OT at my current job, but if they offer it (and it has to be approved) it is time and a half.

I've been salaried for a long time so I get nothing. I guess with the level I'm at though, my boss is very flexible too if I ever have doctor appointments, need to come in late/leave early, etc so I can't really complain about OT when it happens!

Didn't vote because there's no option for me. We get 2x OR the option for pto. After we work our OT shift we fill out our form for approval and check whether we want it banked or paid out.
