Sec. 23.10.060. Payment for overtime. (a) An employer
who employs employees engaged in commerce or other
business or in the production of goods or materials in the
state may not employ an employee for a workweek longer
than 40 hours or for more than eight hours a day.
(b) If an employer finds it necessary to employ an
employee for hours in excess of the limits set in this
subsection, overtime compensation for the overtime at the
rate of one and one-half times the regular rate of pay shall
be paid. An employee is entitled to overtime
compensation for hours worked in excess of eight hours a
day. An employee is also entitled to overtime
compensation for hours worked in excess of 40 hours a
week; in determining whether an employee has worked
more than 40 hours a week, the number of hours worked
shall be determined without including hours that are
worked in excess of eight hours in a day because the
employee has or will be separately awarded overtime
compensation based on those hours.
(c) This section is considered included in all
contracts of employment.
