yes. the FLSA requires that a person be paid one and one-half times the standard wage for each hour worked over forty in a week or each hour worked over eight in a 24 hour period.
No. There are many jobs that workers don't get time off.
The noun overtime is an uncountable noun. Multiples are expressed in terms of 'hours of overtime', 'more overtime', 'some overtime', etc.
Working more than 40 hours.
FLSA law says that a week is 40 hours. If you worked more than 40 hours that week, anything over the 40 is overtime even if you worked only 37 the following week.
You need more information to solve this: how many hours is his regular work time (to calculate the number of hours that are overtime), and how much he gets paid for overtime work.
starts out at around 36,000 plus a bunch of overtime. you will definitely work overtime. expect around 45,000 first year, maybe more.
That means how much you are paid for each hour you work OVER 40 HOURS. It should be at least 50% more than you're paid for each of the first 40 hours.
Hire more staff.
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.
Based upon the given hours, there must be 5 employees.Total hours worked = 200 + 50 = 250 hours%overtime hours = [ ( 50 ) / ( 250 ) ] [ 100 ] = 20 %
No. Overtime is only given if you work more than 40 hours in a given workweek.
The decrease in hours affected hourly employees greatly. Most of them were earning 40 hours per week of overtime or more, when ford cut back on overtime, thousands of employees had their pay cut in half or more than half.
Generally no. A person who is correctly identified as exempt from the overtime provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) does not have to be paid overtime regardless of the number of hours worked.
