How Overtime Pay Works: Rules & Calculations

FLSA Federal Overtime Standard

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), non-exempt employees in the United States must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek at a rate not less than 1.5 times their regular rate of pay.

Double Time Laws (California & State Exceptions)

Certain states (such as California) mandate 2.0x double time pay for work conducted beyond 12 hours in a single workday or beyond 8 hours on the 7th consecutive day of a workweek.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate time-and-a-half overtime?

Multiply your base hourly wage by 1.5. For instance, if your hourly wage is $20/hr, your overtime rate is $30/hr ($20 × 1.5).

Are salaried employees eligible for overtime?

Salaried non-exempt employees earning below federal or state threshold minimums are entitled to overtime pay regardless of fixed salary structure.
