| Dec 16, 2010 at 0:30 | comment | added | Dean Harding | @JohnL: It may depend on jurisdiction, but in Australia at least it works the other way: your "hourly rate" would be calculated from your yearly salary. That's why you don't get paid over time, etc. | |
| Dec 16, 2010 at 0:04 | comment | added | JohnL | @Chris: I get a salary too, but it's converted from an hourly rate (37.5 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, less 21 days service leave and public / mandatory holidays). Check your contract, you will likely find that yours is similar | |
| Dec 15, 2010 at 23:15 | comment | added | Chris | Where I work if you are DNA for a server then you are getting that call vacation or not. This is why we pay employee's a salary not an hourly rate. There is no clock just a yearly figure we compensate you for your time (time varies). Not saying I agree nor saying you should not enjoy your vacation but this is the nature of the beast. | |

| Dec 15, 2010 at 20:51 | comment | added | Bill | I guess we are assuming here that there is not a procedure or requirement for this in place at the company you are working for? Is that Even that common anymore? This is something I thought the expectations for are usually handled in the interview process. | |
