Hawaii Overtime Law Provisions

Hawaii Wage and Hour Law requires 1.5x regular pay after 40 hours in a workweek. Minimum wage is $16.00/hr.

Enforcement Agency: Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR). Non-exempt hourly employees in Hawaii are legally shielded under concurrent state wage regulations and the federal Fair Labor Standards Act.
Payroll Deductions: Graduated state tax from 1.4% up to 11.0%. In addition, federal FICA taxes (6.2% Social Security + 1.45% Medicare) apply uniformly across every pay period.
Unpaid Overtime Recovery: If your employer failed to pay earned 1.5x overtime or misclassified your role, you have the legal right to file a free statutory wage claim with Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR) or the US Department of Labor (WHD) to recover back wages plus potential liquidated damages.

Frequently Asked Questions in Hawaii

How is time-and-a-half overtime calculated in Hawaii?

In Hawaii, multiply your regular base hourly wage by 1.5. For example, if you make $16.00/hr, your overtime rate is $24.00/hr. Any hours worked past 40 hours in a single payroll workweek must be paid at this rate.

Can an employer in Hawaii refuse to pay overtime?

No. If you are classified as a non-exempt employee, your employer is legally required to pay overtime under both Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DLIR) statutes and federal FLSA regulations, regardless of whether the overtime was pre-approved.

Is overtime pay taxed differently in Hawaii?

Overtime is taxed as regular earned income. While your paystub may look like more taxes were withheld due to entering a higher weekly tax bracket, any excess withholding is balanced out on your annual tax return.
