The problem with most managers is that they don't actually manage. They just do tick box exercises for paperwork requirements.
Usually for one of two reasons.
1) Legal or corporate bureaucracy to provide a paper trail for some standards system.
2) To cover their arse from frivolous legal claims.

I remember many years ago when Nat West did something similar in their back office / call centres

They downgraded all the team managers down to clerical grade.

As managers they got a salary and so no OT payments
As Clerical grades they did

The total costs increased as suddenly they approved all OT and naturally decided that they needed to be on site to supervise people doing OT
