Overtime Rules in Utah — FAQ
How is overtime calculated in Utah?
In Utah, overtime follows federal FLSA law: any hours over 40 in a single workweek must be paid at 1.5x your regular hourly rate. Your employer cannot average hours across multiple weeks.
What is the overtime rate for salaried employees?
Salaried employees earning under $684/week ($35,568/year) are entitled to overtime under FLSA. For those above the threshold, it depends on their job duties. Non-exempt salaried workers use their regular rate: annual salary ÷ 52 weeks ÷ 40 hours.
Can my employer give comp time instead of overtime pay?
Private sector employers generally cannot substitute comp time for overtime pay under federal law. Government employees may receive comp time. Some states have additional restrictions.
Does Utah have any additional overtime protections?
Utah follows the federal FLSA standard. Overtime is required after 40 hours in a workweek at 1.5x regular pay. Always check with your state labor department for the most current rules.
