  • $6.55 per hour as of July 24, 2008; and
  • $7.25 per hour as of July 24, 2009.

The regular rate of pay on which overtime pay is calculated cannot be less than the federal minimum wage. This Advisor will make a sample overtime pay calculation based on information you provide. The regular rate of pay calculated from your data will be compared to the federal minimum wage.
