What is the 8 hour labor law?
Answer:
OK, here's how it works:
Let's say you work a second 8-hour shift at $5.15
3 * 10 = $30
13 * $5.15 = $66.95
$96.95 / 16 hrs = $6.06 regular rate of pay
8 hrs OT @ $6.06 * .5 (premium portion of overtime; straight-time portion is already included in the $66.95) = $24.24
Total Pay = $66.95 + $24.24 = $91.19
I don't know where he's getting $7.36, but this is the minimum you must be paid under the federal FLSA.
It would have been easier if you would have specified which country you were referring to. Nevertheless; the link below will give you detailed information pertaining to individual countries.
