Rule details

Does Florida require daily overtime, weekly overtime, or both?

Florida generally follows the federal weekly overtime rule for most covered nonexempt employees. Overtime is usually paid at 1.5× the regular rate after 40 hours worked in a workweek. Florida does not have a general daily overtime rule for most private-sector employees. Use the calculator above to estimate regular pay, overtime pay, and total gross pay.

Example calculation

Florida Weekly Overtime Example

A hotel employee earning $16.00/hour works 46 hours in a workweek. Overtime applies to the 6 hours worked beyond 40.
Assumed Regular Rate: $16.00/hour
Regular Hours: 40 hrs
Overtime Hours: 6 hrs
Step-by-step breakdown
1Calculate regular earnings: Regular pay is 40 × $16 = $640.
2Calculate overtime premium: Overtime pay is 6 × $24 = $144.
3Add regular and overtime pay together: Total pay: $640 + $144 = $784.00.
Estimated Total Earnings: $784.00

Florida overtime rules in 2026

Florida does not have state-specific daily overtime rules. Instead, Florida follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) for overtime calculations, but mandates a state-specific minimum wage that is scheduled to increase annually.
