Human Resources » Payroll Information Center » Overtime

Business demands may sometimes require employees to work extra hours, beyond those for which they are usually scheduled. Whenever possible, the University will notify employees in advance if overtime will be necessary. However, employees are expected to be available, and to work the extra time when needed, regardless of what notice has been given.

Federal and state laws determine employee eligibility for overtime pay. If a non-exempt employee anticipates a need to work extra hours, he/she must receive the supervisor's approval in advance. Overtime is paid at a rate of time and one-half (1½) the regular base pay for all hours worked over forty (40) in a workweek. Holidays and vacation count as hours worked for overtime purposes.

Exempt employees are not eligible for overtime pay. (See Employee Classifications section).
