It depends on whether or not you are exempt from overtime for other reasons. For example, some salaried administrators, executives, and professionals are exempt from being paid overtime. Being paid a salary doesn't automatically mean you are exempt from overtime. Contact the Wage and Hour Division for more information. A. Overtime is generally required to be paid only after an employee works more than 40 hours in one week, regardless of whether or not a holiday occurs in the workweek.
Holiday pay is subject to the policy of the employer.
A. Vacation pay, holiday pay, bonuses, sick leave and severance pay are examples of wage agreements which may be made between employers and employees as a part of the employee's total compensation. There is no requirement to offer these benefits. Your employer is, however, required to honor any established policy or agreement relating to the payment of benefits such as accrued vacation or severance pay upon termination. If you qualify for payment of benefits under the employer's policy, you should be paid for these upon termination. For more information, contact the Wage and Hour Division.
