I am a medical transcriptionist. Our normal shift is 8 hours a day. But sometimes I extend a few minutes to an hour because our the nature of our job is “production base” thus requiring us to finish 450 lines a day.

Even though we exceeded already the normal 8 hours, still, they don't consider our excess work hours as an OT because of the “production base” rule and we are NOT PAID for it.

Is this legal of some sort. Because our contract requires us to finish 450 lines a day. But sometimes, I extend because have not yet met the stated 450 lines. Can you help me out.

They are not paying me of my excess hours.. I really think that it is unfair… please help me out on this.
