Arizona overtime laws ing to FLSA, anything over 40 weekly hours worked is considered overtime. Unlike some states, which specify overtime with daily work hours (i.e., anything over 8 hours per workday), Arizona labor laws don't have such regulations.
Salaried employees in Arizona can work any number of hours as required by their job duties and employer expectations.
Arizona Overtime Rates Any work done over 40 hours per week is considered overtime, ing to FLSA. Unlike some states that also have daily overtime regulations, Arizona does not specify daily overtime. Hourly employees are entitled to 1.5 times their regular hourly wage for overtime work.
The standard workweek in Arizona is defined as 40 hours. Any hours worked beyond this threshold must be compensated at an overtime rate of 1.5 times the regular wage rate.
In Arizona, employees must be compensated at one and a half times their regular hourly rate for overtime hours. Overtime is calculated based on working more than 40 hours in a single workweek.
Working more than 8 hours in a day offers the same overtime rate as over 40 hours in a week. Even if the employee works less than 40 hours in the week, long days provide additional compensation. If the long day extends to more than 12 hours, the rate increases to double the employee's regular hourly rate.
Some employers try to avoid paying overtime by moving their employee's hours between workweeks or averaging it between two workweeks. For example, some employers will try to avoid paying overtime to an employee who works 50 hours by only having them work 30 hours the following week.
