In Reply To: my offer sheet specifically says any hours over 40 a week.
Message: Someone I know is a E level and works in a BPO and this is there situation. BPO supposed to be same as services. Everything about the 120% rule per pay period is correct except if you are an analyst(F and E level) in Services. Then you are not considered exempt and you will be paid for every hour over 40 in a week and in some states, more than 8 per day regardless of the weekly total. Something changed Sept 2004 with the Fair Labor Standards (something like that). All current BPO Services E and F's (not sure if this applies to all Services but hopefully someone will chime in, would have all the info. They even got paid retro back to 9/04 just this last September. Resulting in the upper levels (d and c) ending up working the OT to avoid paying.
