Nevada overtime rules (2026)

Nevada is ranked #4 on our vignette week (#1 = highest gross). Rule badge: Daily after 8h*. Nevada: Daily OT (1.5× after 8h/day for employees earning under $18.00/hr); all employees: 1.5× after 40h/week. Source: NRS 608.018

Federal FLSA still sets the baseline: nonexempt employees generally earn 1.5× for hours over 40 in a workweek everywhere. Nevada adds state daily rules that can increase pay before the weekly threshold is reached.

Use /us-overtime-calculator to test your schedule; gross OT here is pre-tax.
