Nursing care facilities may pay overtime over 40 hours each 7 day week, or, under an 8 and 80agreement with employees, pay overtime over 8 hours a day and 80 hours every 14 days.
Under federal law, employers are generally allowed to require their employees to work as many hours as the employer wishes. However, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires that, for some jobs, employees required to work more than 40 hours a week must be paid time and a half (their regular hourly wage plus 50%). Accordingly, forced overtime (sometimes called âmandatory overtimeâ) is generally legal, at least under federal law.
