If she's serving as an independent contractor after her normal hours, those hours would not count as overtime. They are totally separate and she should bill accordingly, setting her rate at whatever she chooses. That said, she didn't have to answer the phone AND she should have notified her manager that she was only available as a freelancer and quoted her price. At that point, the manager could have agreed to the terms or not.
@@hillbillydeluxe27 actually no. No court, no labor dep. will recognise this as overtime or freelance, if this was one time off, and she did not inform manager when she accepted work. This is problem in communication skills.
@@abupinhus actually, that very case was adjudicated where I live and they found in favour of the employee. Maybe you live in an area with a lot of fascists and right wing nut bars.
Unless she has a signed contract to work freelance HR might not side with her. They will have to pay her OT for what her manager asked her to do but they may only approve one hour. They will then talk to the manager and you will never have this problem again.
@@Ephemeral2023, at one company I drove for my Driver Manager would as who would like to be "on call" during a holiday weekend. I'd volunteer since I didn't have any kids at home and get paid $50 a day just to sit at the house. I also had stopped consuming alcohol in 1977. If I had to go recover or repower a load I also got paid the mileage from my house to wherever and then the mileage to take it where it needed to go.
That’s the problem with a lot of these videos unless she was really awesome at her job. They wouldn’t put up with this. And the timesheet would be easy they simply wouldn’t approve it.
LOVE Veronica. She Don't play!
You go Veronica!!!!!!

This way, her supervisor learns her lesson.

@@hillbillydeluxe27fascist or right wing nut bar ... didn't expect that!
Thank you. Many of these videos, though entertaining, are just an employee’s fever dream. Heh

Yes.
Why would Veronica take the call tho ?
It's two hours of time and a half.
Like me. I was a jackass for answering my phone when my "team" leader called me at home with my family. Never again.

Just fire her and hire someone who's worth your time
