ARE YOU A SALARIED EMPLOYEE WHO DOES NOT RECEIVE OVERTIME PAY WHEN YOU WORK MORE THAN 8 HOURS IN A DAY OR MORE 40 HOURS IN A WEEK?
If you answered yes to the above question, I'd like to talk to you so that I may determine whether you should be receiving overtime pay. Remember that just because the employer puts you on salary doesn't mean that you are not entitled to overtime pay.
California law assumes, until sufficiently rebutted, that all employees are entitled to be paid at 1 ½ times their regular rate of pay (sometimes referred to as "Overtime Pay" or "OT") for all hours in excess of 8 per day or 40 per week.
California law also assumes that all employees are entitled to be paid at 2 times their regular rate of pay (sometimes referred to as "Double-Time Pay" or "Golden Time") for all hours in excess of 12 in a day.
Employers often put workers on salary in order to deceive them into believing that they are no longer entitled to overtime pay. However, job title does not determine eligibility to receive overtime pay. This determination is largely made based on the duties you perform (as laid out in California and federal statutes and Supreme Court case law), not solely on whether you are put on salary or how much that salary is.
California law assumes that all employees are entitled to a 30-minute duty-free meal period each day before beginning their sixth hour of work.
California law assumes that all employees are entitled to a second 30-minute duty-free meal period each day before beginning their eleventh hour of work.
California law assumes that all employees are entitled to a 10-minute duty-free rest break on each day they work at least 3.5 hours.
California law assumes that all employees are entitled to two separate 10-minute duty-free rest breaks on each day they work more than 6 hours.
