No, it is not legal to work overtime without pay in most circumstances. Employees must be compensated for any hours worked beyond the standard workweek according to federal and state labor laws.

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.

Oh, we don't need to worry about that. It's important for everyone to feel valued and appreciated for their hard work. Employers should handle overtime pay fairly and in accordance with labor laws to ensure that employees are compensated properly for their time and effort. Just remember, kindness and fairness go a long way in creating a harmonious work environment.


What is the legal amount of overtime hours a person can work within a 2 week pay period in Florida?

I believe Federal law requires any person to have at least 8 hours off the clock between shifts, so the max hours anyone could work would be 16 in any one 24 hour period. When overtime starts depends upon the employer - some require 40 hours at work (not on paid leave) before overtime pay starts, for others overtime begins after 8 hours at work.

Is it legal to work someone over time and not pay them in dallas?

That depends. Wage and hour laws determine who must be paid overtime- and what IS overtime. Some employees are salaried employees, known as "exempt" employees. I am a manager, and I am paid a flat salary, without regard to the number of hours I work- whether 30 or 50. Your question, along with more information, needs to be directed to the Texas Employment commission.


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.


Could overtime pay make worker work few hours?

Employees work the hours set by the employer. Employers try to avoid working employees in overtime situations. Overtime is designed as a PENALTY on employers.
