United States Congress
Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act
March 14, 2024
Summary
The Thirty-Two Hour Workweek Act would amend the FLSA to lower the overtime threshold from 40 to 32 hours per week, with overtime at 1.5x the regular rate, and add daily overtime for workdays over 8 hours (1.5x) and over 12 hours (2x). For certain employees, the threshold phases down from 38 to 32 hours over three years, and employers may not reduce compensation or benefits for employees newly brought under overtime coverage. As proposed federal legislation, it would affect mortgage lenders, brokers, and servicers as employers, but it does not target any specific mortgage program.
