I am a salaried employee. I am paid $5.00 an hour and I am classified as a supervisor. I am regularly expected to work more than eight hours a day. My employer says that according to the Code I am not entitled to overtime or premium pay. Is this so?

Overtime is ordinarily given to daily and hourly rated pay and not salaried employees. However, if your salary does not compensate adequately, the employer may be required to pay you overtime even though you have been classified as a salaried supervisor. In this case, you should seek the guidance of a Labour Officer at the Labour Department.
