Greetings to all...

The correct classification of employees is essential to managing
costs, employer compliance, avoiding grievances and lawsuits.

I've been receiving some grumblings about requiring my research
assistants/associates to work an eight hour day. There seems to be an
opinion that because they are currently classified as exempt
employees, they are not required to work a full although they are paid
as such.

Although I am aware of the work day latitude that the exempt status
carries; I was wondering if any of you classify your research
assistants and associates as non-exempt employees...or in the
alternative, can you offer any strategies (in a research environment)
to define the work day as an eight hour day.

Thanks,

Robert
