If you are paid hourly, or if you are in a non-managerial position and should be paid hourly even if you are not, then you would be entilted to additional pay, and perhaps overtime pay. These are very fact intensive issues so you should meet with an employment law attorney who specializes in wage and overtime cases to review your case in more detail.
