Any work over the 40 hour standard is considered overtime. Overtime work is not prohibited except in the case of pregnant women, minors under the age of 18, and some other specified categories of Workers. When not prohibited, overtime generally requires the Worker's consent and a premium rate. The first two hours should be paid at 150% and 200% for every hour after that.
