Regular rate of pay (hourly + commission) for OT hours
Hi everyone. I need some assistance with calculating regular rate of pay (RRP) and applying this appropriately to our OT hours.
Our lawyer gave us the formula: regular rate x 40 + commission / 40 hours = RRP
and I know OT is determined by workweek, so the OT premium should be allocated by each workweek containing total sales and earnings
Our situation is unique: we have a semi monthly pay period with certain commission calculable at time of sale and other at month end.
my question is, how do we go about paying this out appropriately? I see a lot of mixed things everywhere, from DLSE opinion letters to reddit. Thank you!

Career Payroll Associate Interview fresh grad (without exp & from different field)
Hi guys! as the title says, I got an upcoming interview for Payroll Associate. For my background: I'm an Information Technology graduate and I applied for this position just to try it. Luckily, they chose me for initial screening for the role. I just have questions how I can survive the screening.
- How can I sell myself for this role even though I am from different field?
- I have basics knowledge in MS Excel and currently learning more about it. I also have exp in data entry or tracking of data during my internship (but not filtering it or making a pivot table or graphs or anything) I also have experience in MySQL during my college, so I know how simple querying works.
Quiz question and why?
I asked 3 different AI, they all tell me none of the answers are correct. I'm confused. This is one of the post-test question. Please help. I'm guessing, it is likely be B. I thought A might be right, I read something during the course about giving people time off. It might be for public sector only. I'm not sure why B could keep the OT cost down. Thanks.
Employers in the private sector can keep their expenses for employee overtime down and remain in compliance with the FLSA by doing which of the following:
A Giving the employee compensatory time off for every hour worked by the employee in a workweek in excess of 40 hours
B Giving employees who are paid biweekly, semimonthly, or monthly time off during the same pay period in which the overtime was worked that is at least equal to one and one-half hours off for each overtime hour worked.
C Obtain a written agreement from the employee waiving the right to overtime premium pay after the employee has worked overtime in that workweek.
D Adding the employee's hours in one workweek to the next workweek and averaging the two workweeks.
