It depends on whether the position you hold is one that is deemed exempt from the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act which is the federal law requiring overtime compensation for all hours worked in excess of 40 per week. You should contact the Wage and Hour Division of the US Department of Labor or a lawyer to discuss your particular situation. The Department of Labor website www.dol.gov also has a great deal of information and FAQs concerning exemptions from overtime.
