Overtime

AUTHORITY – UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (FLSA) as amended (29 USC §201 et seq.; 29 CFR Parts 510 to 795) Revised on April 20, 2004

The FLSA establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards affecting employees in the private sector and in Federal, State, and local governments. Covered nonexempt workers are entitled to the minimum wage. The federal minimum wage effective July 24, 2009 is $7.25 per hour.

Overtime pay at a rate not less than one and one-half times the regular rate of pay is required after 40 hours of work in a workweek.

OVERTIME FOR NON-EXEMPT EMPLOYEES

 Record ALL hours worked in the ADP System including any hours actually worked in excess of 40 hours in a workweek  All OT must be authorized by the immediate supervisor prior to working  OT pay is calculated at 1 ½ times employee’s hourly rate for all hours actually worked in excess of 40 hours in a workweek  Compensatory time may be earned in lieu of OT pay at the rate of 1½ times the number of hours worked

Violation

 Not inputting all hours in ADP – instead have separate recordkeeping  Not paying or providing appropriate compensatory time

PENALTIES/SANCTIONS

Penalties/Sanctions

The Department of Labor uses a variety of remedies to enforce compliance with the Act's requirements. When Wage and Hour Division investigators encounter violations, they recommend changes in employment practices to bring the employer into compliance, and they request the payment of any back wages due to employees.

Willful violators may be prosecuted criminally and fined up to $10,000. A second conviction may result in imprisonment. Employers who willfully or repeatedly violate the minimum wage or overtime pay requirements are subject to civil money penalties of up to $1,100 per violation.

EXEMPT EMPLOYEES

 Regulation identifies and excludes certain worker (exempt) from FSLA coverage • Executive • Administrative • Professional (Learned Professional) or Professional (Creative Professional) • Highly Compensated employees  Employees in exempt positions get paid the same amount every workweek regardless of the hours they work  Required to record leave  Departments should not allow flex hours to compensate for “extra” hours worked
