Ohio Overtime Law FAQ: Can my employer refuse to pay overtime because I receive a salary?

No. You have to get overtime, regardless of whether your pay is received monthly or yearly. Some employers try to avoid paying overtime by paying a yearly salary instead of wages. As long as you are working more than forty hours per workweek and you are non-exempt, the law requires that you receive overtime pay. Contact a lawyer and have the conversation – you may very well be entitled to money.

 Ohio Overtime Law FAQ: Can my employer give me paid time off instead of overtime?

The law requires that non-exempt employees are paid time and a half. Paid money – not time off. If your employer is compensating you for overtime work with paid time off, call a lawyer asap.
