Is it illegal to work more than 8 hours a day w/o overtime pay? -

i sometimes work more than 8 hours a day sometimes up to 11.it is a family own yogurt shop and they don t pay overtime.is this legal?

Not in most states. Usually the laws only say you have to be paid overtime if you work more than 40 hours in a week. Some states don t always say even that.Check your own state s Web site to find out for sure what the laws are where you live.

Assuming it s not YOUR family that owns it, and you aren t a manager, no it isn t legal for them to not pay you OT

Perfectly legal. Overtime is based on more than 40 hours per week, and family owned small businesses are exempt anyway.

Maybe. Some states calculate overtime by TOTAL per week, instead of daily amount. ---Kasey C, PC guru since Apple II daysDon t take life too seriously; you won t get out alive.

No it is not but if you work over 40 hours in a week they must pay you at the overtime rate.

no
