Do you pay overtime to your employee if he works 13 hours every Monday and Thursday only? Total of 26 hours per week.

It’s nice to see you in the Community, cmata1.

Let me share some information to get you on the right track.

For employees covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), they must receive overtime pay for hours worked in excess of 40 in a workweek.  Or, at least one and one-half times their regular rates.

To ensure you comply with the federal and other agencies' regulations, I suggest consulting a tax adviser. They can guide you on how to handle the situation. If you’ll have to add the overtime pay, follow the steps below on how to set it up in QBO.

1. Tap the Payroll menu on the left panel to choose Employees.
2. From the list, click on the worker’s name to open the profile.
3. Click the Pencil icon for Pay under the Employee details tab.
4. Navigate to the How much do you pay section and tap the Add additional pay types link.
5. Tick the box for Overtime Rate and enter the amount in the field.
6. Click Done to keep the changes.
