Overtime is payable in most cases for any additional hours.

Answer 3

The standard working hours are 38.5 hours per week. In some industries, workers often work longer hours than the standard but most will receive overtime for the additional hours. In most industries, senior staff and commission earning employees work longer than the standard without overtime, but their higher salaries and commission compensate for that. In the case of ordinary (non managerial or commissioned) workers, if someone works longer than 38.5 hours, they are eligible to be paid overtime.
