What is overtime?

Generally-- unless you are properly classified as exempt, any time that is worked past 8 hours in one shift, over 40 hours in one work week, or working 6 days in one work week is considered overtime work. This time is to be paid at the overtime rate. Hours worked in excess of 8 in one day are paid at time and a half. Hours worked in excess of 40 in a week are paid at time and a half. California labor code requires that all hours worked on the 7th consecutive day of a work week be paid at 1.5 times an employee's regular rate of pay. In addition, hours worked over 12 in one day, or hours over 8 worked on the 7th consecutive day in a week are paid at 2 times an employee's regular rate of pay.
