One of the most frequent mistakes companies make is miscalculating overtime pay for nonexempt employees. While laws vary by state, under the Fair Labor Standards Act nonexempt employees are entitled to overtime pay at a rate not less than time and one-half their regular rate of pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek.
