Daylight Savings Time Reminder

By Cindy Satter posted 28 days ago

  

Daylight savings time ends Sunday, November 2nd, when clocks will “fall back” one hour at 2:00 am. What does this mean for your workplace? Other than some tired employees on Monday morning, if you have third-shift employees, they will work one more hour than normal. The FLSA requires that non-exempt, hourly employees be paid for all hours actually worked. 

If your employees normally work an eight-hour shift from 11:00 pm to 7:00 am, then they will work nine hours when they work on November 1st and 2nd. The extra hour during the “fall back” must be counted. 

Employers need to plan ahead and communicate with their managers and team members.

And keep in mind that overtime rules apply, since these are actual hours worked.
