Can I require my existing employees to work longer hours? We currently have 8 hour shifts but we would like to expand them to 10 hours until we find more help.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Getting a good restaurant reservation is still a huge problem, too\u2026 As a starter, I offer the very nice <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> that yes, you can require an expanded shift from 8 hours to 10. For the main point, I pair that fact with the lovely news that expanding the shift does not necessarily trigger overtime pay \u2014 which is one and a half times the worker\u2019s regular rate of pay \u2014 since overtime in New York is calculated on weekly hours worked in excess of 40. May I finish off this three course advice with a little more \u201ccheese\u201d as in a lovely Italian cheesecake drizzled with warm raspberry compote.

I think the real reason she gave three weeks is because that takes her last day to the end of the month, when we pay out the bonuses. I am happy that she is leaving, so am I obligated to pay her for those three weeks and her bonus?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are potentially two different answers, but firstly, unless there is a written policy that states otherwise, you are under no obligation to accept a resigning employee\u2019s offer of a notice period. You can ask them to leave the same day that they give notice and just pay them through that day. As for the bonus, that depends on how the bonus plan is written. In some plans the bonus is earned regardless of current employment status, and as such it must be paid in full or in part whenever an employee leaves. In others, the person must be actively employed on the day bonuses are paid in order to receive the money.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/at-work-289.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"you are under no obligation to accept a resigning employee\u2019s offer of a notice period.\" class=\"wp-image-22446475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/at-work-289.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/at-work-289.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/at-work-289.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>You are under no obligation to accept a resigning employee\u2019s offer of a notice period.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">AP Photo\/Brittainy Newman<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Gregory Giangrande has over 25 years of experience as a chief human resources <em>executive.
