They won't pay the overtime and holiday hourly pay at time and a half.
My company pays time and a half for overtime and time and a half for holidays.
Ex. I worked 50 hours the week of July 2nd to July 8th.
I did not have to work July 4th but i figured I would pick it up because it would be paid 1/2 time at the overtime hourly rate,not the regular hourly rate.
Well,i got my pay and I asked them about the rate.
They claimed that they do no have to combine overtime and holiday pay on the same hours.
Another example:
So the regular rate is $20.
Overtime would be $35,which i thought would be $52.5/hr on July 4th.
I was given $35/hr for July 4th.
I should have just stayed home and went to the family cookout.
Most employers won't stack OT and holiday pay. According to your example, you already get a differential of 1.75x for OT, the only mandate is to pay 1.5x for OT. Your employer is already pretty generous.
The only time I have heard of employers stacking pay rates was the UAW in the 1980s. That doesn't happen any more.

You should consider yourself lucky. $20 * 1.5 = $30. If you were given $35, you got more than you were supposed to.

I did not know that.
I guess I will not work any more holidays then.
Most of my coworkers do work overtime,but nobody wants to work holidays.
^ Contact someone in Payroll and tell them you want to review your hours for that week. Mistakes do happen.
