The company always extends overtime hours for no reason. Should I ask for corresponding overtime pay?

It is your right to ask for overtime pay, but whether you want to ask for it and whether you can ask for it is another matter. Let’s first talk about whether to ask for it. Some people may be wondering, why not ask for it? Why don't you have money? Every company's situation is different.

Some companies used to not work overtime, but at a certain period of time, they suddenly started to work overtime frequently. At this time, there is either a problem with the company's operations, or the company has received a large order and is making progress. No matter what the situation is, it is when the company needs its employees the most.

At this time, apart from you working overtime, other colleagues are also working overtime. If no other colleagues mentioned overtime pay and you did it alone, your boss might pay you overtime pay due to labor laws, but the impression of you would be compromised.

Although I receive overtime pay now, I may miss opportunities for promotion and salary increase in the future. An employee's contribution to the company will also be seen by the leaders. If you spend time with the company during its most difficult times, if the company's operations improve in the future, you will definitely give back to the employees.

Another situation is that the company habitually works overtime. It seems that all employees have always been in this state, and everyone has defaulted to working overtime for a few hours for free.

If you encounter this kind of company, consider it comprehensively. If the salary is quite good and you won’t suffer a loss even if you work overtime, then keep doing it. If the salary usually requires working overtime all day long, then you should pay overtime when it is time to pay, and resign when it is time to resign.

After asking for overtime pay, the leader may not agree. Bosses in the world are generally stingy. Everyone wants to maximize profits for themselves, and so do bosses. The boss naturally hopes not to pay any expenses that can be saved.

If you mention it to the boss, the boss can pretend to be stupid and continue not to give it, which will create a gap between the employee and the boss. Therefore, there are many employees working overtime, but there are few employees who actually receive overtime pay. This is because there are always reasons.
