Overtime in Vermont

Vermont overtime is governed by 21 V.S.A. § 384(b), which requires overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. The statute sets out the calculation method, and the official source provides the exact details of the rule and any applicable exceptions. The only specific dollar figure stated in the statute is $300.00, which relates to a threshold within the law. The worked example below demonstrates how the formula applies. For an estimate of overtime pay under this statute, use the calculator to evaluate your own situation.

Wage calculation example

Example inputs:

• Hourly rate: $20
• Hours at issue: 10
• Applied multiplier: 1.5x

Calculation:

• Multiply the hourly rate by the hours at issue.
• Apply the verified multiplier when the claim type requires it.
• Example amount: $300.00

This example is generated from packet-backed values. Confirm coverage, exemptions, lookback periods, and liquidated-damages rules before relying on the amount.
