Interested to hear how other salon owners pay there staff for overtime.
Currently we pay our staff monthly for there anticipated contracted work hours and then they record there additional hours to this each month which we pay them for on top.
My concern with this practise is 1 - there is no incentive for staff to finish on time, so they end up staying doing jobs that aren't perhaps a necessity and could be addressed the next morning. 2 - if one member of staff remains working with a client there is a tendency for other staff members to stay on till that one member of staff is finished as they feel obliged/bad not staying.
Can anyone suggest any alternative methods that might help cut what I feel is a slightly uneccessary overtime bill.
