I should have clarified that the nine 9 hour days are available for exempt employees only.
Just a word of caution – this may help the employees with the high gas prices, but for all hourly employees, you must still pay overtime for any non-exempt hourly employees who work over 40 hours in one week. The Department of Labor does not allow you to average the two weeks in a pay period together.
Example: If Joe works 5 9-hour days the first week (45 hours). He works 3 9-hour days and 1 8-hour day the next week (35 hours). If Joe is hourly, non-exempt, you must pay him 75 hours at his regular wage, and 5 hours of overtime.
We offer employees alternate work schedules: four 10 hour days per week or nine 9 hour days (with one day at 8 to make it 80 in a two-week pay period).
We pay the IRS mileage rate, so when that rate goes up so does ours.
We have increased our mileage to .40 a mile and we give our office employees $35 a month for a gas allowance.
