Kentucky follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) rule and nothing stricter for most private employers: overtime at one and a half times your regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek. The card first turns each shift into paid minutes (clock-out minus clock-in, minus unpaid breaks, with overnight shifts rolled into the next day), optionally rounds punches the way payroll does, and then splits the week under Kentucky's rule:
Kentucky minimum wage (2026): $7.25/hour. Kentucky's minimum wage is the federal $7.25. Source for overtime rules: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/overtime. Source for the minimum wage: US Department of Labor, State Minimum Wage Laws table. Last verified: November 2026.
Just the hours-per-day version for Kentucky: the federal 40-hour rule only, with the worked example at the $7.25 minimum wage.

Free — try itYes. Unlike the generic flagship card, this page splits your week under Kentucky's rule: the federal 40-hour rule only. Premium hours are never double-counted.
The 2026 Kentucky minimum wage is $7.25 per hour for most workers. Kentucky's minimum wage is the federal $7.25.
Six 8-hour days at $7.25: 40.00 regular hours ($290.00) plus 8.00 overtime hours ($87.00) = $377.00 gross before taxes — the exact week pre-loaded in the card above.
Separate from the weekly rule, Kentucky requires time and a half for hours worked on the seventh day when an employee works all seven days of a workweek — but only when the week's total passes 40 hours. For most workers the federal rule reaches those hours first; the state law is a backstop, and this calculator applies the federal rule.

Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM with a 30-minute unpaid break — 8 paid hours a day, 48 for the week — at the Kentucky minimum wage of $7.25/hour: the card totals 48:00 hours — 40:00 regular and 8:00 overtime, for a gross of $377.00 ($290.00 + $87.00). That is the week already loaded in the calculator above.
Because the rule is weekly. Twelve hours in a day is regular time if the workweek ends at 40 hours or less; the premium starts only when the week's total passes 40. States with daily overtime are the exception, not the norm.
Paid break minutes stay in your paid time instead of coming off the shift. That can move a day or a week across a threshold: a 9:00-to-6:30 shift with a paid 30-minute break holds 9.5 paid hours, not 9.
