Is OT paid after 5 hours for PTimers?

Curious as to if OT is paid after 5 hours? I heard someone talking about it. Or is it after 8 in a day or 40 hours in a week?

After 5 unless you elect to pull a "double" sort. Then it's after 8 on the two combined shifts. If you only work 1 day that week and work over 5, you'll still receive OT.

Only in some locations. Where I am, it's OT after 5 no matter what. If you double, it's highly likely that one of your shifts, in its entirety, will be OT.

In the Southern, a sort could be run 3 1/2 hours, shut the belts off for a 30 min lunch or break, then run the sort another 3 1/2 hours, 7 total.
All paid at straight time.

No OT here after 5, but you can request 8 hours at that point.
We have guys triple shifting this month. OT after working 5 hours. Unless your are also driving as part of your job. I tell my boss I can make more money double shifting then driving package car at top rate.
