Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Offering higher overtime pay in excess of regular hourly pay can incentivize workers to work longer hours as they can earn more money per hour for the additional work. Lowering wages or offering lower overtime pay can actually have the opposite effect and demotivate workers from working longer hours. Increasing wages on all hours worked may not be effective in incentivizing longer hours as the worker will still receive the same wage per hour regardless of how many hours they work.
