I also have had a fever for past few weeks, tiredness, the painful neck and generally feeling unwell. I had a full blood count done a couple of weeks ago and a test for glandular fever and apparently everything came back fine. they also did a swab in my throat and that is fine.
Federal laws do not address how many hours an employee must work to be a full-time employee. It leaves that decision to the employer. Some state laws, such as California, recognize employees who typically work at least 40 hours a week as full-time employees. You must pay all employees covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act overtime pay for any hours worked over 40 in one week.
Regardless of how many hours the employee actually works, he is entitled to the same salary. Usually benefits are based upon a 40 hour week, even if the employee actually works 50, 70 or 100 hours per week. HTH, and thanks for reading the blogs!~ Caitlin.
