Concept: Rolling 24-Hour Periods

Overtime regulations in Nevada require that you pay certain workers overtime when they work more than 8 hours in a 24-hour period. When you create a standard overtime calculation that accommodates this requirement, Workday starts the period when a worker begins work. Workday ends the period 24 hours later. When a worker works more than 8 hours within the 24-hour period, Workday counts the additional hours as overtime, even if they occur the next day.

Example: A worker starts work at 9:00 AM on Monday. The 24-hour period begins with a check-in at 9:00 AM. They work for 8 hours, then leave for the day. On Tuesday, they start work at 7:00 AM. The 24-hour period doesn't end until 9:00 AM on Tuesday, so any hours they work between 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM count as overtime.

The 24-hour period continues to start at the same time for each subsequent day until the worker has a break in consecutive 24-hour periods. A break occurs if the worker starts work more than 24 hours after the start time of the previous day.

Workday evaluates the previous 14 days to determine when the 24-hour period starts. If a worker works more than 14 days without a break of more than 24 hours, Workday applies the start time of the day exactly 14 days before the current day.
