Nevada Overtime Pay Calculator
Calculate your overtime pay under Nevada's specific overtime rules.
Overtime rules in Nevada
Nevada is one of a small number of states with daily overtime rules that go beyond the federal weekly-40-hour standard. This means you may be owed overtime pay even in weeks where you don't cross 40 total hours, if you worked a long single day.
How this estimate works
We calculate your weekly overtime pay using the standard 1.5x rate on hours beyond 40, and flag when Nevada's daily rules may entitle you to additional pay based on hours worked in a single day.
This is a simplified estimate — exempt/non-exempt classification and industry-specific rules can affect your actual entitlement. Check with your state labor office or an employment attorney for your exact situation.
