Working from home has been the new deal since the beginning of the spread of the Coronavirus. Thus, you might want to pick the option of hourly payment over monthly payment, especially since you probably work for longer hours at home. If your employer is giving you a choice between monthly or hourly payment, here are the points to guide your choice:

1. A salary earner is ineligible for overtime unless specifically stated, but for hourly payment, every moment counts.

2. The cumulative earnings of hourly payment may vary from month to month depending on because of the hours put in.

3. It is easier for the hourly earner to renegotiate his salary after all it is based on how much is put in over time, he can do more and earn more. Renegotiation is not easy for the monthly earner, in fact almost impossible

4. Time can be better managed. As an hourly earner you have better management over your time.

5. The monthly earner however can still be paid for days off, however the hourly earner cannot do that and this will be of good advantage to the employer.
