Last checked against official sources: (cdle.colorado.gov; cdle.colorado.gov)
Enter a week of hours to compare Colorado’s twelve-hour daily, forty-hour weekly, and optional consecutive-hour overtime rules. HourPunch applies whichever yields the highest pay.

FAQ
- How does Colorado overtime differ from federal FLSA?
- Colorado requires 1.5× after twelve hours in a workday, after forty hours in a workweek, or after twelve consecutive hours—employers pay whichever calculation produces the greater wage.
- What is the consecutive-hours field?
- If your longest uninterrupted work stretch in the week exceeds twelve hours, enter it so HourPunch can compare the consecutive-hours rule with the daily and weekly grid.
- Does Colorado require double time?
- COMPS does not add a separate double-time tier for standard non-exempt work. This page shows regular and 1.5× overtime only.
- Can I share my Colorado overtime calculation?
- Use Copy share link, Print, or Download CSV on the calculator.
- Is this official CDLE guidance?
- No. Refer to cdle.colorado.gov and qualified professionals for compliance.
How this calculator works
Colorado COMPS Order #40 (7 CCR 1103-1 Rule 4.1) requires 1.5× pay for work over twelve hours in a workday, over forty hours in a workweek, or over twelve consecutive hours. Employers must pay whichever calculation yields the greater wage. HourPunch runs each test and selects the best result for the employee. See Colorado Department of Labor and Employment (CDLE) labor standards.
