[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Recipient's Name] [Recipient's Designation] [Company/Organization Name] [Company/Organization Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Request for Approval of Overtime Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request approval for overtime work in order to meet the increased workload and upcoming deadlines. I have diligently analyzed the current tasks and workload, and after careful consideration, I firmly believe that additional time is necessary to accomplish all assigned duties within the given time frame. As we all know, the Colorado labor laws recognize the significance of overtime compensation for employees who work beyond the standard working hours. Colorado follows the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLEA), which requires employers to provide overtime pay at a rate of one and a half times the regular pay rate for any hours worked over 40 hours in a workweek. It is my understanding that in our organization, approval of overtime work must be obtained prior to its execution. I would like to explain the specific circumstances that have given rise to this request. [Mention the reasons for the increased workload/urgent deadlines or any specific project/task demanding additional time]. Due to these unforeseen circumstances, I believe that working additional hours would be the most effective solution to ensure the timely completion of these crucial tasks. Considering the mentioned circumstances, I propose working [specify the number of additional hours required] overtime hours on [state the specific days or dates]. I assure you that I will utilize this extra time productively, maintaining the utmost dedication and commitment to achieving the goals set forth in my job responsibilities. Furthermore, I would like to emphasize that overtime work is crucial not only for meeting project deadlines but also for the overall success of our department and company. By granting this overtime request, I am confident that we will be able to maintain excellent client service, uphold our reputation, and deliver high-quality results. I kindly request your prompt consideration and approval of this overtime request. I understand the strain such additional expenses might impose on the organization, and I assure you that I will exert every effort to minimize costs while maximizing efficiency during this overtime period. Please feel free to contact me should you require any additional information or if you wish to discuss this matter further. I am available at your convenience. Thank you very much for your attention to this matter. I sincerely appreciate your understanding and support. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
