FAQ
A salaried employee in Texas can work up to 40 hours in a standard work week. If a salaried employee's workhours exceed 40, they are eligible for overtime compensation at 1.5 times their regular hourly rate. However, following the guidelines of the FLSA, exempt employees are not eligible for overtime.
A Texas federal court has struck down the 2024 Department of Labor overtime rule increasing the salary level applicable to the Federal Labor Standards Act's “white collar” exemptions both prospectively and retroactively.
Typically, for an unpaid overtime claim, an employee has up to two years to file a complaint or lawsuit. If action is not taken within two years, the court will likely deny the case. This time limit can be extended up to three years if the worker can prove that the employer knowingly went against FLSA regulations.
Overtime rules in the postseason consist of as many 15-minute periods as are necessary until there is a winner, instead of the single 10-minute overtime period in the regular season. Both teams will now get at least one possession, even if the team that has the first possession scores a touchdown.

In general, if you have worked more than 40 hours in a pay week, and are not "exempt", you must be paid an overtime rate for all hours over 40. State law says that an employee required to work more than 40 hours in a workweek is entitled to compensation for the excess hours.The extra 2030 hours are completely free to the employer, allowing employers to exploit workers with no consequences. Overtime is compensated at a rate of 1.5 times your regular rate of pay. The hours that count toward your workweek include most work performed. Overtime wages are 1.5 times an employee's regular pay rate for each hour worked over 40 in a workweek. If you work more than 40 hours per week, you might be entitled to overtime pay for each hour worked over the standard 40. Regularly scheduled full-time and part-time employees who work a holiday earn holiday premium pay for all non-overtime hours up to 8 hours. There is a six (6) year statute of limitations on complaints for unpaid minimum wage, overtime and all other complaints. Knowing if your employees are exempt from overtime tax laws means figuring out whether they're exempt from overtime pay.
