What is an hourly job?

An hourly job is a position where employees are paid based on the number of hours they work, rather than receiving a fixed salary. Hourly workers typically track their time and may be eligible for overtime pay if they exceed a certain number of hours per week, depending on labor laws. These jobs are common in industries like retail, hospitality, and manufacturing. Hourly employees may have flexible schedules but often lack the benefits that come with salaried positions.
