Overtime accrues for overtime-eligible classified employees who work in excess of 8 hours per day or 40 hours per week; and will be paid at time and a half. Overtime accrues for non-exempt unclassified employees who work in excess of 40 hours per week, and will be paid at time and a half.

A. Under the FLSA, overtime is all work over 40 hours in a single workweek. A few states have overtime laws that may be more generous, for example requiring overtime pay after 8 hours in a single day. Texas law follows federal law and defines overtime as hours worked over 40 in a single workweek.

For most employees, overtime is all the hours a person works over 40 in one work week. Overtime is supposed to be paid at time-and-a-half of an employee’s regular rate of pay. For example if you make $10 per hour, then you should be paid $15 per hour for all hours you work over 40 in a work week.
