R 408.721 Determining workweek for overtime compensation.

Rule 21. (1) An employer shall establish an employee's workweek and shall indicate the beginning time and day of the workweek in the employment record for the employee. (2) Once the beginning time of an employee's workweek is established, it remains fixed and may be changed only if the change is intended to be permanent and is not designed to evade the overtime requirements of the act. (3) Each workweek stands alone. Averaging of hours over 2 or more weeks is prohibited, regardless of whether the employee works on a standard or swing shift schedule and regardless of whether the employee is paid on an hourly, daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, piecework, commission or other basis, except as otherwise provided by law.
