<prompt> Human: My co-worker suggested we go here for some help. Both of us work in insurance and make 30k of salary with commission giving us an extra 10k or so a year. We work probably around 10-12 hours extra a month with no overtime pay because we are salaried. Its pretty annoying because we will have to work a full Saturday for free, All in the name of salary.This new overtime law, from what I can tell demands we are paid hourly instead of salary since we make under the 47k a year it has as a benchmark. I brought this up to my boss and he said he has heard nothing of it and it doesnt sound right. That was the end of it.In the past we have pushed for things in the office and he kind of takes it personally so Im not sure how to proceed. Boss makes it sound like little perks we have in the office wouldnt be available to us if we were salaried. Things like paid time off, health care allowance of 100mo, paid sick days...all are things that wouldnt exist if we were hourly. Any advice on what to do?  <response>: Boss makes it sound like little perks we have in the office wouldnt be available to us if we were salaried.

Assuming theres no law in your jurisdiction requiring them, your boss doesnt need to offer any of those to salaried or hourly workers, and can choose who he offers what.
