Summary

  • Kansas does not follow the federal Fair Labor Standards Act in computing overtime; it has a different standard for calculating when an employee is entitled to overtime compensation. See Overtime.
  • Kansas law includes special overtime compensation rules for certain public employees. See Police Officers, Firefighters and EMS Workers.
