You know that you are an hourly-paid employee if you are not a student employee and your job offer included an hourly payrate. You may also have been told if you are eligible for overtime pay.
You must submit timesheets in order to get paid. Payroll services will make sure that you are paid on time, correctly and in accordance with federal and state laws and regulations.
