Wages & Benefits

Hours, Payroll & Pay

• A total of 80 hours per two-week pay period is guaranteed (according to the employer’s policy).

• Most employers pay weekly; some may process biweekly payroll.

• In your first and last week, you might not reach 40 hours depending on actual start/end dates.

• Paychecks may be issued one week in arrears (“paid in arrears”).

Timekeeping & Overtime

• You must follow the clock-in / clock-out system to record the exact hours worked.

• Overtime is paid at time and a half (1.5x), in accordance with applicable law and the employer’s policy.

• If you accept leaving early at a manager’s request, you may lose part of your guaranteed hours for that pay period. Always confirm with your supervisor before leaving.

Absences, Closures & Weather

• Sick leave is typically unpaid, and employer closures due to hurricanes or other force-majeure events are usually unpaid unless the club’s policy states otherwise.

• It is your responsibility to track your clocked hours daily.

Taxes & Deductions

• Depending on your visa and tax status, deductions may include: Social Security (FICA), Medicare, federal income tax, and, where applicable, state and local taxes.

• Deductions are automatically withheld from your paycheck.

• US Work Experience does not provide tax advice; we will direct you to official resources.

Important

• US Work Experience is not the employer and does not guarantee visas or job offers. We facilitate the talent–club connection and support you throughout the process.

• Final conditions (salary, schedules, benefits, uniforms, meals, housing, and transportation) depend on the hiring club and will be confirmed in the job offer.
