I was a 1st year apprentice when he started me at 14 ph. Anouther stub says 160 hours rate 14 take home 1752...anouther 160hours rate 14. Ot 11 hours rate 21 take home 1822..anouther 194:30 hours rate 14 ot 10:30 rate 21 take home 2118.69 anouther 194:30hours rate 14,ot rate 21 take home 2189... What I don't get is why he's puting more hours than I worked all are 80 hours plus the ot .but like someone said he's saying I worked less on his end do the paychecks add up to pw wages for apprentice
this is really simple.
you are an hourly employee.
you are not a salaried employee.
you haven't indicated you are working
under a collective bargaining agreement.
are you? it makes a difference.
you have not indicated if you are working
within a state indentured apprenticeship
program. you would have had to sign papers.
did you? it makes a difference.
if BOTH of the answers to the above questions
are NO, then the man owes you a gross income,
before taxes, of the prevailing wage for all hours
worked.
work in excess of 40 hours per week shall be paid
at the rate of 1.5x the prevailing wage.
so, a 40 hour work week should give you a gross
pay before taxes of $98.13 x 40 = $3,925.40.
it doesn't matter how he lists your pay. it matters
how much the total is. accounting systems vary.
the worlds largest public utility has an accounting
system that is incomprehensible to most of the
people paid under it.
it doesn't matter. we know what the gross should
look like. if you are in a labor union, hours reported
will have a significant effect on pension reporting,
and health and welfare benefits, but that doesn't sound
like what is going on here.
so, focus, check out the two questions above, and then
see how much you got paid for two weeks work.
it should be $7,850.40.
and prevailing wage jobs invariably use certified payroll.
of course, if you were really smart, you'd wait till the job
is over, then file the claim for all the back wages, and
you will get paid.
for all of it.
if you bitch now, you will probably just get laid off.
