Labour Law related:
My boss refuses to pay me my outstanding overtime worked upon my resignation, on the basis that I am a senior manager. My role within the company is to execute and oversee events on site (usually after hours) and admin related duties during normal hours at the office. Fulfulling these roles usually leads to a 60+ hour week.
My role requires me to hire contract workers, bartenders specifically, to work the specific functions; they are not permanently employed by our company but rather get paid for each job/day. I have no power to hire or fire permanent staff members, nor can I control which of these "casual/contract workers" get hired again by my colleagues, regardless if I approve or not.
Does my employer have any legal ground? Or may I freely claim my overtime owed to me?
