It depends on your contract. Every time. It is almost always, however, after 40 hours a week. Some contracts specify it is after 45 hours. Some contracts stipulate no overtime pay at all.

Is it legal to take away overtime hours that an employee worked?

It all depends on your compant's policy on overtime. If they state that overtime pay and work is not allowed, they can actually terminate you for working hours over your scheduled shift. If they allow overtime, they must pay you that time. Each state has different rules in regards to overtime pay, and I would check with your state agency. Also, a certain amount of days without a break (example 6 days in a row) as long as the hours work out to 40 per week, that extra day of work would not be counted as overtime.


How is overtime rate and overtime pay calculated?

To calculate overtime pay, follow these steps: Determine Overtime Rate: Typically, it's time and a half (1.5 times the regular rate). For example, if the regular rate is $20/hour, the overtime rate is $30/hour (1.5 x $20). Calculate Overtime Hours Worked: Overtime is usually the hours worked over the standard full-time hours (often over 40 hours per week). Calculate Overtime Pay: Multiply the overtime hours by the overtime rate. E.g., for 8 overtime hours at a $30/hour rate, the overtime pay is 8 x $30 = $240. In Excel: Set up columns for names, regular hours, hourly rate, overtime rate, overtime hours, and pay. Multiply regular hours by hourly rate for regular pay. Multiply overtime hours by the overtime rate for overtime pay. Add regular and overtime pay for total pay. Ensure accuracy in calculations to avoid compliance issues. For complex situations, consider using dedicated software or automation tools.

I am on salary but work 45 hours a week should you get paid overtime?

Per Federal Law, you need to understand the definitions used for pay. Non-exempt is usually an hourly employee and Exempt is usually a salaried employee. Some salaried employees are non-exept. Their salary is based on a 40 hour or pre-determined number of hours a week. If they work more than their determined number of hours per week, they get overtime pay. Exempt employees are exempt from the overtime laws. You are paid a salary per pay period no matter how many hours over 40 you work. You can work 40 hours or 90 hours and you will get the same pay either way. Non-exempt employees are not exempted from the overtime laws. If a non-exempt employee works more than 40 hours per week, they are required to receive overtime pay. One thing to remember is that overtime is only used for hours actually worked in excess of 40 hours per week. If you get 2 day of holiday pay (Christmas usually), those 16 hours of pay do not count for overtime purposes. You would have to work more than 40 hours in the days that you did not have off.

Is overtime based on a 40 hour work week or is overtime based on 80 hours bi-weekly In otherwords if you work 46 hours one week and 34 hours another week is overtime due for the fist week?

Paid OvertimeBasically, work more hours than your standard daily working hours, you get over time (over time will be e.g if your on £7 an hour the over time rate will be an extra £3.50 ontop of that) and if you work longer than your week contracted hours of 37.5 or 40 hours, you get over time as above.in my opinion, over time doesnt make an impact on your wage unless your doing atleast 10 hours of over time each week
