What are the overtime laws for restaurant wait staff?

The overtime pay laws for restaurant wait staff, under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), requires employers to pay it workers overtime pay for all hours worked more than 40 in a single work week, however, some wait staff may be exempt from the FLSA requirements.

In addition, deductions made from wages for items such as cash shortages, required uniforms, or customer service walk-outs are illegal if the deduction reduces the employee’s wages below the minimum wage or cuts into overtime pay.
