Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I work up to 10 hours a day as a delivery driver/shop helper. My boss says that I am not entitled to overtime unless I work over 10 hours a day, because I’m in the trucking industry. I do make deliveries, but I also work in the shop. Are there different overtime rules for truckers, and if so, am I considered a trucker? Signed, Distracted Driver Dear Distracted:
©iStockphoto.com/asiseeit
Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
Overtime rules vary by industry and situation, but for most employees, overtime is all hours worked in excess of eight hours a day or 44 hours a week. Overtime is calculated both on a daily and weekly basis. The higher of the two numbers is overtime hours worked in the week.
Some types of employees are exempt from the hours of work and overtime standards. Farm workers, domestic employees, salespeople, professionals, police, and managers are just a few examples of exempted occupations. Other industries, such as the trucking industry, have different overtime rules. Truckers must be paid overtime after 10 hours a day or 50 hours a week. For a complete list of exempt occupations and industries with differing overtime rules, read the Overtime Hours and Overtime Pay Fact Sheet at: http://work.alberta.ca/es. You asked if you are considered to be a truck driver. Your situation includes a lot of variables. Whether you drive long distances (across provincial boundaries), the type of company you work for, how much of your time you spend driving and the type of truck you drive all have an impact on whether you are working in the "trucking" industry. I encourage you to call the Alberta Employment Standards contact centre toll-free at: 1-877-427-3731. The advisers will be able to dig down into the details of your situation and let you know if you are working in the trucking industry or not. Regardless, the overtime that you work must be paid at the rate of at least 1.5 times your regular wage rate. The sole exception applies where the overtime is accumulated under an overtime agreement. Some employers and employees agree to replace overtime pay wholly or partly with time off with pay. This is done through the use of an overtime agreement. An overtime agreement allows overtime hours to be banked and later taken off with pay, hour for hour, during regular work hours. However, if banked time is not taken off within three months then it must be paid out at time and one half. Employers can not create a “use it or loose it” type rule for banked overtime. Overtime can not be lost or taken away even if your overtime agreement says that it can. Employers must keep track of the banked overtime and how long it has been in the bank. However, the employer can tell the employee when to take their banked time off.
