Regular, non-health care employees, are permitted, in California, to work four 10-hour shifts as a regular schedule. These employees will not earn daily overtime for those first 10 hours. This means that employees and employers can come to an agreement to create an alternative workweek.

Common examples of alternative workweek schedules are the 4/10 (employees work four 10-hour days in a workweek) or the 9/80 (employees work 80 hours in nine days over two workweeks). The impetus for proposing an alternative workweek schedule may be based on business needs or on requests from employees.

Briefly explain the reason for the overtime request so they understand the context. Acknowledge that it may require flexibility on your part and express willingness to discuss scheduling. Close politely and offer to discuss further if needed. The tone should be respectful, appreciative, and flexible.

If the employee worked more than 40 hours in the workweek, weekly overtime hours are calculated as total hours minus 40. For example, 44 total hours - 40 = 4 hours of weekly overtime due.

California has regulations for OT over 8 hours in a day, and then additional for the 7th consecutive day. ( ).
