Topic: Wage & Hour

At 2:00 a.m. this Sunday (i.e., the second Sunday in March) daylight savings time arrives and clocks should be set ahead one hour. 

Remember, if you have caregivers working a night shift or live-in, the change to daylight savings time can affect the number of hours they work.  For example, an employee who normally works an 8-hour shift that includes when the time changes, will actually only work 7 hours.  You can either pay for only the 7 hours actually worked or pay for the full 8 hours.  If you pay a full 8 hours, you do not need to include the extra hour's pay in determining a nonexempt employee's regular rate for overtime pay purposes.
