Supreme Court overtime ruling explained for Portal Act scope
The U S Department of Labor official explains that employers who paid time and a half for weekend or holiday work may be shielded by the Portal Act from back wage claims if they acted in good faith and followed interpretations. The decision requires adjustments for overtime pay, with enforcement starting July 1, and notes that extra pay for undesirable hours can be credited toward overtime rather than part of base pay.
