Should overtime be paid for rest hours ? Suppose if a person is asked to stay in second shift of 8.5 hours which includes half an hour rest period also. Should the employee be paid overtime for the 8 hours or 8.5 hours .

Permitting or asking an employee to overtime of 8 hours any way is illegal, but in case you have asked him to do so, he should be paid it for rest hours also, ie, for 8.5 hours.
