federal law says 40 hrs/wk. over that is time and a half.
employers may offer better wages and rates.
unions negotiate their own contracts.
beware of employers that pay twice a month. making a pay period 15 or 16 days.splitting a calendar week into two pay periods. you might work more than 40 hrs that week and still not get OT because of the split.(the hours are paid as two separate weeks,no OT)
also be aware of some jobs thatr pay what we called "chinese OT".
this was a sales job with an hourly rate and commision. due to the commision aspect, a matrix that included base pay and # of hrs worked supplied a percentage of base to be paid as OT.
I thought this to be very unfair, but apparently it's perfectly legal. |

Depends on what company you work for - and also the state you live in. Ask your HR department. |

It's usually based on a forty hour week...anything over forty hours in a one week period, constitutes overtime. |

It varies from state to state and with the type of job.
Basically the employer does not want to pay you
Combine that with the desire to be paid.
The Redpublican agenda is to eliminate all work in America by 2020. It will be much nicer than working when you start earning money from your stock market investments.
The best thing is to close the shop and outsource You should encourage your fellow employees to buy stock and vote Red. |

Strange question...
|
Standard overtimes starts as soon as you hit 40 hours in a 7 day week. Check with your employer, though, in case you are paid by salary, which doesnt make overtime for hours worked. |

It totally depends on Company policy...Federal regulations are anything over 40.......some companies will pay for anything over 8 hours a day. |

It does really depend on where you live, what the laws are, and what the company policy is. For me it is anything over 8 hours in one day is overtime and anything over 40 hours in one week is over time, but if I work all 7 days and not more than 8 hours in one day and don't get over 40 hours I wouldn't get any overtime. |

depends on company and state policy. Some states you can work a 12 to 16 hr day and not get paid overtime as long as you don't go over 40 While in other places everything over 8hr is over time. But as far as i know their is no over time for how many days you work i know people who work 10 days straight at one job before a day off and as long as they don't go over 40hrs in 7 days no over time
Also if you are on salary no over time period |

The law is based on a 40 hour week but your company may pay it on a 8 hour per day basis. |

All business that employ people have different policies. Some are 40 hours/week+, and some are over 8 hours/day. Unions normally go with the 8+hours, but it varies from one company to the very next. Choice, or specific reasoning. |

It all depends on company policy. Most places that I'm aware of pay overtime weekly (over 40 hours or whatever you're contracted for) |

It really depends on your employer, I work in a tax office and Usually if you work anything over 8 hours it is considered overtime. |

Depends on the states. Some states require for you to work at least 40 hrs. before your overtime starts, like TN. and then
some states if you work more than 8 hrs. in any given day, that extra time is your overtime, even you don`t work whole 40 hrs. like in NY. |
