FAQ
California has regulations for OT over 8 hours in a day, and then additional for the 7th consecutive day. ( ).
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.
In Texas, there are no laws at the state or federal level limiting the number of hours an employee can work in a day or week. Consequently, employees cannot refuse to work overtime if their employer requires it. Refusal to work overtime may lead to disciplinary action, including possible termination of employment.
