Beginning January 1, 2000, time and a half (1½) is required after 8 hours and double time is mandatory after 12 hours, or on the seventh day of work in one week.  Workers can vote to adopt an alternative schedule that includes 10 hour days with a two-thirds majority.  Individual workers can use personal time, and make up hours later that week, but cannot work more than 11 hours in one day without receiving overtime pay. 

Employees voluntarily working an alternative schedule on July 1, 1999 which does not exceed 10 hours in a day, can continue to do so by written request.
