Any first year worker who chooses to work for SMAK Inc will be paid at the rate of $7.25 per hour.
 
Any first year worker who works everyday that their crew works will be paid all working hours at a rate of $7.75 per hour excluding Sunday. The Sunday wage will be $10.87 per hour if all conditions are met.
 
In order for the worker to be paid time and a half on Sunday any worker must also have worked complete days on the Saturday before and the Monday after the Sunday. Therefore a first year worker, who misses Saturday, works Sunday and Monday will be paid at the rate of $7.25 per hour for Sunday’s hours of work. Likewise a worker who works Saturday, Sunday and Monday will be paid time and a half for Sunday.
 
To earn the bonus wage a worker must work every hour that their crew works.
 
Time and a half wages are based on a workers regular wage, not the bonus wage. See Chart.
 
Workers will be paid starting when the day begins at the field site. Workers will continue being paid through all water breaks and during a fifteen-minute mid-morning break. At noon or thereabouts there will be a thirty-minute unpaid lunch break. Starting again after the noon break workers will continue to be paid until they have completed their work in the field that day. The Supervisor records the exact field departure time for each employee so small variations in work time for the day may occur from worker to worker. The nature of the job creates several small rest breaks during the regular workday, which will be paid by the employer. Each worker is responsible for checking his or her hours on the daily timesheet at the end of the day and signing off on them.
 
Medicare and Social Security will be taken out of your check. No other deductions will be taken.
 
Expect your paycheck within two weeks of the end of the detasseling season. Normally it is only a few days.
 
Workers must have completed and delivered the I-9 and W-4 to SMAK Inc before a paycheck will be issued. Once an I-9 is on file at SMAK Inc only a new W-4 will be needed in subsequent years. All paychecks are void if not cashed within 60 days. A photocopy of your social security card and driver’s license (permit) must be on file at SMAK.
 
All workers under the age of 18 years old must sign and return to SMAK Inc the Parent/Guardian Permission Form before beginning employment.
 
All workers need to sign and return to Smak Inc the UNDERSTANDING THE PRECEDURES form. Your signature verifies that you have read and agree to the information on the page labeled SMAK INC 2011 PAY SCHEDULE and the DETASSELING INFORMATION page.
 
Any missing forms or identification will cause a delay in processing your paycheck. Federal and state laws strictly require employers to obtain and keep this information on file for each employee.
