Ohio Overtime Laws 2026
Ohio employers with gross receipts of $385,000 or more must pay overtime at a rate of 1.5 times the employee's regular rate for hours worked over 40 in a workweek.
Calculation Example:
If you work 42 hours in Columbus at $14/hr:
- Regular Pay: 40 hours × $14 = $560.00
- Overtime Rate: $14 × 1.5 = $21.00/hr
- Overtime Pay: 2 hours × $21 = $42.00
- Total Pay: $560 + $42 = $602.00
