ELI5— what this means for you
Your employer cannot say 'we'll deduct your Tuesday undertime from your Thursday overtime.' Undertime and overtime are separate ledgers. Coming in late one day does not forfeit your overtime pay another day.
Key point
Undertime and overtime cannot be offset against each other.
