Compensation for working overtime and on Saturdays
I work in an American infrastructure firm based in India. We work on both American as well as Indian projects. My Indian client works on Saturday while our company does not. Because of the clients, I also have to work on Saturdays sometimes though I am not willing to work on Saturdays.
However, my manager refrains me to put the Saturday work on the time sheet. He says we cannot show Saturday work to our US offices (US office manages all the finance and administration) and cannot charge it to the time sheet since it will affect the project profits.
Our office does have a overtime policy. The manager has never talked about this to us. Which implies that he is not going to allow us to charge the overtime.
Here I have two options: #1 Either ask him a compensatory off on weekday for working on Saturday (There's no provision for compensatory off in our office rules, but he can give a comp off unoficially)
2 Convince him to let me charge the Saturday in timesheet.
What could be the best option to choose?
