Indiana Overtime Pay Rules

Federal FLSA requires 1.5× the regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek for non-exempt employees.

Indiana follows federal FLSA. There is no daily-overtime overlay in Indiana.

The tax myth

Overtime is paid at a higher rate but taxed at the same rate as regular wages. A single big paycheck may be over-withheld because payroll annualizes it; that comes back at filing time.
