Rule details
Does Idaho require daily overtime, weekly overtime, or both?
Idaho 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. Idaho 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.

Pay situations specific to Idaho
These are the Idaho rules that change the overtime math. For the federal rules that apply everywhere — the duties test, what counts toward the regular rate, and how the 40-hour workweek is measured — see the FLSA overtime guide. For how these estimates are produced and reviewed, see the calculator methodology.
A salary by itself does not remove overtime rights. Idaho generally relies on federal FLSA exemption rules, so exempt status depends on both salary level and job duties.
Salaried overtime calculatorIdaho allows a tipped cash wage of $3.35/hour. Employers must make up the difference if cash wages plus tips do not reach the applicable minimum wage.
Tipped overtime calculatorShift differentials, non-discretionary bonuses, commissions, and multiple rates can change the regular rate used for overtime. Use the regular rate calculator when pay is not a flat hourly rate.
Regular rate of pay calculatorIdaho follows the federal 40-hour weekly standard, with no general state daily overtime rule for most private-sector employees.
