FAQ
Utah has no specific limitations on the number of hours a salaried employee can work in a week. Overtime compensation is only eligible if an employee's worked hours reached 40 in a workweek. If an employee works beyond 40, they are entitled to time-and-a-half for any hours worked beyond 40.
WARNING SIGNS OF TOO MUCH OVERTIME One of the first indicators of excessive overtime is your wage bill. If all or most of your employee's actual wages are consistently 30–45% higher than their salary, alarm bells should be going off – especially if it's every month.
Most salaried employees don't often exceed 45-50 hours of work in a given week. If a job regularly requires more than 50 hours of weekly work, then the role is probably poorly designed. The roles, duties and responsibilities may be completed more effectively if distributed across multiple jobs.
Effective July 1, 2024, the salary threshold will increase to the equivalent of an annual salary of $43,888 and increase to $58,656 on Jan. 1, 2025. The July 1 increase updates the present annual salary threshold of $35,568 based on the methodology used by the prior administration in the 2019 overtime rule update.
