Overtime Rules and Rates
What qualifies as overtime depends on your company policy, your state labor laws, and federal rules. This is why you should treat the categories below as a starting point, not a substitute for checking your local requirements.
Daily overtime
Extra pay kicks in after a set number of hours in a single day (for example, past 8 hours)
Weekly overtime
Extra pay kicks in after a set number of hours in a week (commonly 40)
Double time
A higher multiplier, often 2x, applied after an even higher threshold or on specific days
Exemptions
Certain roles or salary levels may not qualify for overtime under federal or state law
Because rules vary by jurisdiction and industry, always confirm your specific obligations with your state labor office or legal counsel before finalizing policy.
