A construction company in WA provides salary pay to superintendents. The supers are expected to do the same work as the carpenters/laborers, as well as complete supervisory activities (paperwork, meetings, etc.). This means the super is often working 45 up to 80 hours in a week. The company does not provide overtime or additional pay. They promise additional days off in compensation but then call the super in for 'emergency situations.' Additionally, the employees often work holidays and, at times, have less than 8 hours in between working hours. Since this is construction, WA/Federal laws are confusing as to whether this is legal or not. Should the employees be compensated in some way for the additional hours worked.
