Yes.

In California, the Labor Code states that employees that work in excess of 8 hours a day, AND 40 hours in any workweek, will be compensated at an overtime rate.

The exceptions are: administrative or professional employees, those employees covered under a collective bargaining contract, Registered Nurses, Licensed Physicians and Surgeons, and those employees and employers who have adopted a regularly scheduled alternative workweek. In the case of the regularly scheduled alternative workweek, an employee cannot work more than 10 hours a day with a 40 hour workweek, without being compensated at an overtime rate.

The California Labor Code has been linked to this answer, and specifically, under sections 200-243, and 500-558, the issues of the "Compensation: Payment of Wages: General Occupations and "Working Hours: in general" address the issue of work hours, and pay.

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.

My position requires an average of 40 hours worked per week on a 5 day schedule. A month ago, I was given a new responsibility that requires me to work 8-10 extra hours a week. I am now working 6-7 days a week with no overtime pay. Is this legal?

You did not state whether you are an hourly or a salaried worker. If you are an hourly worker, your employer is legally required to pay overtime if you work over 40 hours. If you are a salaried worker, that may not be true. This information applies in Houston, Texas.

Can an employer make you work 6 days without pay if your salaried?

An employer cannot make you work ANY days without pay. Hourly workers get paid for every hour. Salaried-overtime - exempt workers get paid for whole days or not at all for a day. Work 1 hour and you earn a days pay. Work 20 hours in a 24-hour period, and you earn a day's pay.


What is the overtime labor law in Florida?

Florida overtime laws require that any worker putting in more than 40 hours in one week must be paid time and a half (one and one half times the regular rate of pay) for any extra hours. Some occupations and industries, however, are exempt from Florida overtime laws. These mirror federal exempted industries and include computer and administrative employees, executive and outside sales employees, and highly compensated or salaried workers.
