The FLSA overtime rule

Under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, non-exempt employees must be paid at least 1.5× their regular rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek. Some states add daily overtime (e.g., over 8 hours/day). Salaried-exempt roles are generally not eligible.

How it’s calculated & sources

Overtime rate = hourly rate × 1.5. Overtime pay = OT rate × OT hours. Total = regular pay + overtime pay. Federal rule; some states are more generous.

Benchmark: FLSA requires 1.5× pay over 40 hours/week (U.S. Department of Labor).

Worked example

At $22/hour, time-and-a-half is $33/hour. Six overtime hours add $198, so a 46-hour week pays $880 regular + $198 OT = $1,078.

Frequently asked questions

When does overtime kick in?

Federally, after 40 hours in a workweek. A handful of states also require it after 8 hours in a day.

Is my salary eligible for overtime?

Only if you are classified as non-exempt. Many salaried roles are exempt and do not receive overtime.

Is double-time required?

Not federally. Double-time is set by state law or employer policy, not the FLSA.
