Overtime rules in Oregon
- Weekly: 1.5 times your rate after 40 hours in a workweek.
- Mills, factories and manufacturing: 1.5 times after 10 hours in a day too, and your employer must pay whichever of daily or weekly overtime is greater. Sawmills, planing mills, shingle mills and logging camps use an 8-hour day, which this calculator does not cover.
- Canneries, driers and packing plants: 1.5 times after 10 hours a day or 40 a week.
- Farm workers get overtime after 48 hours a week in 2025 and 2026, and after 40 from 2027.
- Oregon law does not require extra pay for weekends or holidays.
Oregon also caps hours in manufacturing: most workers there cannot work more than 13 hours a day or 55 hours a week, or 60 if they ask in writing.
Overtime pay at common rates in Oregon
| Hourly rate | Overtime rate | 45-hour week | 50-hour week |
|---|---|---|---|
| $20 an hour | $30.00 | $950.00 | $1,100.00 |
| $25 an hour | $37.50 | $1,187.50 | $1,375.00 |
| $30 an hour | $45.00 | $1,425.00 | $1,650.00 |
How the calculator works
- Each shift's hours are its end time minus its start time, minus your unpaid break. A shift that ends after midnight counts on the day it started. If your employer's workday starts at another time, your result can differ a little.
- Daily overtime and double time come first, where your state has them, then any seventh-day or premium-day rule.
- Weekly overtime counts only the hours not already paid at a premium. So no hour is paid twice, and you always get the greater of daily or weekly overtime.
- With two rates or a bonus, overtime is based on your regular rate for the week: all your pay divided by all your hours, as federal rules require.
The result is pay before taxes. It is an estimate of what the law requires, not legal advice. A union contract or your employer's policy can pay more.
Who does not get overtime
- Most salaried office, management and professional jobs are exempt from overtime if they pay a salary of at least $684 a week ($35,568 a year) and the job duties meet the federal tests. Being paid a salary alone does not make you exempt.
- In 2024 the Department of Labor raised that salary level, but a federal court in Texas struck the rule down on November 15, 2024. On May 15, 2026 the Department formally put the $684 level back in its rules. The highly paid employee level is $107,432 a year.
- Some states set a higher salary level or stricter tests than federal law, so check your state's rules if you are on a salary.
- Other common exemptions include outside sales jobs, some computer jobs, many farm jobs, and some workers at seasonal amusement businesses. Independent contractors are not covered, but being called a contractor does not decide it.
- Hourly workers almost always get overtime, whatever their job title.
