Rule details
Does Kansas require daily overtime, weekly overtime, or both?
Kansas generally follows the federal weekly overtime rule for most covered nonexempt employees. Overtime is usually paid at 1.5× the regular rate after 46 hours worked in a workweek. Kansas 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.

Kansas overtime rules in 2026
Kansas has a unique state overtime threshold of 46 hours per week for employees not covered by the federal FLSA. However, since the federal FLSA covers most workplaces, the standard 40-hour limit with 1.5× overtime is the default for the vast majority of Kansas workers. The state minimum wage is $7.25/hour.
