Overtime Initiative

All employers, regardless of size, are hereby required to observe the 32 hour workweek effective January 1, 2014. Existing law governing overtime pay shall be modified so that persons who work over 48 hours a week are paid 2.5x the regular hourly wage and those who work over 54 hours per week are paid 3.0x the regular hourly wage. No person shall henceforth be allowed to work more than 60 hours per week. In addition, any person who works a shift in excess of eight hours per day shall receive overtime pay, regardless of whether or not that person works in excess of 32 hours per week for a full week. Employers found in violation of this law shall be fined no less than 25% of their annual earnings.
