Practice question
A firm ordinarily operates 40 hours over five days. It validly adopts four ten-hour days under DA 02 s. 2004, satisfies all conditions, and has no more favorable practice. Are hours nine and ten automatically subject to daily overtime premium merely because they exceed eight?
- Yes; the Advisory never applies to a 40-hour firm.
- No; the Advisory permits adapting a compliant compressed scheme to the firm's 40-hour normal week.
- Yes; fewer than six workdays is prohibited.
- No; the employer may now require unlimited hours without premium.
- Only if the workers resign first.
