Reasons to Love Hourly Pay (Mostly) If you have an hourly position, you already know the answer. As an hourly employee, you are paid for all (or most) of the hours you work. If the employer wants more of your time, it has to pay you more. Legal overtime is time and a half; some employers may pay double time for holidays, but that isn't mandatory unless it's part of a contract that covers your job.
The IRS considers a full-time employee to be one that works at least 30 hours a week. Both hourly and salaried employees are full-time if they work more than 30 hours a week, regardless of the designation.However, an employer doesn't have to offer benefits to part-time, hourly employees.alaried employees are exempt from overtime and break regulations. Rather than being paid by the hour, salaried employees are paid the same basic rate regardless of how much they work. That means a salaried employee could work 30 hours one week and 50 hours the next week and receive the same pay.
