Overtime
The standard hours of work are generally eight hours in a day and 40 hours in a week. Work beyond the standard hours is overtime. Employees who work overtime are entitled to be paid 1 ½ times their regular wage for the hours worked during overtime. Overtime must be authorized by employers.Overtime Exemptions - Workers who perform management functions primarily
Most employees are entitled to be paid 1 1/2 times their wage for hours worked beyond eight hours in a day or for hours worked beyond 40 hours in a week. An employee is only entitled to overtime for work that is requested, acknowledged or authorized by the employer. In some cases, employees are not entitled to overtime wages because they perform management functions primarily. This fact sheet explains this exclusion.Overtime Exemptions - Workers who substantially control their hours of work
