Compensation and Payroll Practices Policy
(NV)

Summary

This template is a compensation and payroll practices policy for use in Nevada that covers the payment of wages, deductions from wages, exempt employees, timekeeping (including off-the clock prohibitions), overtime, meal and rest breaks, breaks for nursing employees, on-call time, and wage and hour complaints. This template includes practical guidance, drafting notes, alternate clauses, and optional clauses. This template is intended for private employers. Employers may include this policy in an employee handbook or distribute it as a standalone policy. For a non-jurisdictional employee handbook, see Employee Handbook. Its language has been customized to comply with Nevada and federal law. As a result, the text of this template differs from the non-jurisdictional Compensation and Payroll Practices Policy. The drafting notes, alternate clauses, and optional clauses address issues under both Nevada and federal law. For a full listing of key content covering employee handbook considerations, see Employee Handbook Resource Kit.
