Recently signed a contract with RE, on the contract it states that i would need clock 44 hours per week to be entitled to OT. However, my working hour is only 8hrs per day which sums up to 40hours per week. Which means each week, if i were to work OT i will never be able to claim OT pay if its within the 44 hours.

On the day itself, the agent verbally told me that so long its after the end work time, i am entitled to OT pay rate. I blame myself to be gullible and didnt do the calculation on the spot. Afterall theres nothing i can do about verbal agreement since the contract is sign.

The reason i accepted this offer initially was due to the fact that the agent told me its a convertible position, however on the day reporting to work, i found out that its actually a permanent temp position. Again, i blame myself to be so naive.

Hope you guys learnt from my lesson. Any advice are welcome
