Overview: In this article we will examine three scenarios where employees work for multiple employers so that employers can determine if and when employees must be paid overtime. The concept of making payment of Overtime through Multiple Employers is describes with the help of three examples that have different situations. The methods are Joint Employment, Common Paymaster, Multiple Unrelated Employers etc. In the vast majority of cases individuals who work for multiple employers are not entitled to overtime compensation unless they work more than 40 hours a week for a single employer. However, as in this article, there may at times be situations where an individual may be viewed as being jointly employed by two employers, whether or not they are related, and in those cases the individual may be legally entitled to receive overtime compensation when the total number of hours worked for all employers exceeds the maximum of 40 hours per workweek.
