In the State of California, employees of covered employers are entitled to be paid overtime if the employee works more than 40 hours per week, or more than 8 hours per day, and their position is not otherwise exempt from the overtime law. Overtime hours must be paid at the rate of one-and-one-half times the employee’s regular rate of pay. (For an employee who is paid a salary, the regular rate of pay is calculated by dividing the annual salary paid to that employee by 2,080 hours.) |
