I hadn't presumed to make them work overtime without pay. I figured the nuisance & embarrassment value would suffice, especially if the crew meets up socially right after work. As for fining them, check with the lawyer. In at least one state I've worked, it is (was?) legal so long as the employee takes home at least minimum wage at the end of the week. (very common with commissioned sales people who don't sell the minimum and need a "draw" check)No, fining employees or trying to make them work overtime without pay is illegal. Did you read to the end of the post I responded to?
