FAQ
Is overtime after 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week in Florida? In Florida, there are no overtime requirements for hours worked over 8 in a day. Overtime is based on a weekly count of hours (anything over 40) and not a daily count.
South Carolina is an at-will state, which means that employees may be terminated for any reason, a good reason, a bad reason, or no reason. The employee may also quit for similar reasons without providing notice to employer.
In South Carolina, work hours are typically governed by Title 41 of the state's Code of Law. Full-time employment is generally considered to be between 35 and 40 hours per week, although this isn't explicitly defined by law. This standard applies nevertheless to the majority of employees working in the state.
Unfortunately, Florida allows employers to impose overtime work, and there is no limit to the number of hours they can require. Unless your employer is violating employment law, safety regulations, or a contract through mandatory overtime work, you cannot oppose it.
The state of Florida has no daily work hours limit, so employees can work as much as they want.
OT is based on cumulative over the week, not daily. Over 40/week is OT.
To be exempt from overtime protections as a managerial or executive employee in California, you must make twice the state minimum wage.
