Get in Touch →The Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires covered non-exempt employees to receive at least 1.5× their regular rate for all hours over 40 in a single workweek. FLSA does not require overtime for work on nights, weekends, or holidays — only when weekly hours exceed 40.
Some states have stricter rules. California requires daily overtime (1.5×) for hours over 8/day and double time (2×) for hours over 12/day or over 8 hours on the 7th consecutive day of the workweek.

Get in Touch →FLSA requires overtime pay (at least 1.5×) for non-exempt employees working more than 40 hours in a workweek. It does not set a daily limit. Overtime is calculated by workweek, not pay period — a bi-weekly paycheck doesn't allow averaging hours across two weeks.
Yes. California mandates daily overtime at 1.5× for hours over 8/day, and double time (2×) for hours over 12/day or over 8 hours on the 7th consecutive day. Workers can earn both daily and weekly overtime — whichever calculation results in more pay applies.
Only salaried non-exempt employees qualify. Salaried exempt employees — those earning above the salary threshold (currently $684/week federally) who meet duties tests for executive, administrative, or professional roles — generally are not entitled to FLSA overtime.
For non-exempt salaried employees paid a fixed weekly salary, divide the salary by scheduled hours to get the regular rate. Overtime is then 0.5× that rate for each hour over 40 (since the salary already covers the straight-time portion).
