My employee manual specifically states my hours are 9-5:30 (42.5 hour week) It's a salaried position. No mention of overtime.
My father was officially scheduled from 8 to 5 as a salaried employee, that included an hour lunch break. Your employee manual probably specifies that a lunch break is included in that 9 to 5:30 period. If it was classified hourly position, if you were required to stay on the premises, then they have to pay you for your meal break. I think the rule is the same for salaried, non-hourly workers, but have not read up on that recently.
