California · ski establishment · Wage Order 10 § 3(K)

Ten in a day, or forty-eight in the week. No double after twelve.

8 CCR § 11100 (IWC Wage Order 10) for employees of a ski establishment during any month when Alpine or Nordic skiing (including snowmaking and grooming) is actually being conducted: 1.5× after 10 hours in a workday or 48 hours in a workweek (DIR Exceptions FAQ). There is no daily 1.5× after 8 and no double time after 12 (DLSE opinion 2000.11.03). Labor Code § 510(a) seventh-day premium still applies. A 12-hour mountain day is 10 regular + 2 overtime here; under LC 510 it is 8 regular + 4 overtime. Five 10-hour days here are 48 regular + 2 overtime; under Oregon manufacturing they are 40 regular + 10 overtime. Punches minus unpaid lunch are hours worked.

Read the order: 10 / 48, no DT after 12

Fetched official 8 CCR § 11100 (Wage Order 10 HTML), IWC Article 10 PDF (2025 republication), DIR Exceptions to the general overtime law, and DLSE opinion 3 Nov 2000 (all HTTP 200). § 3(K): no ski-establishment employer is in violation of this order by instituting a regularly scheduled workweek of not more than 48 hours during any month when Alpine or Nordic skiing activities, including snowmaking and grooming, are actually being conducted; any employee shall be compensated at not less than one and one-half times the regular rate for any hours worked in excess of ten hours in a day or 48 hours in a workweek. A “ski establishment” is an integrated, geographically limited recreational industry comprised of basic skiing facilities together with all operations and facilities related thereto.

DIR FAQ Order 10 row (same pay line): employee may have a regularly scheduled workweek of not more than 48 hours; paid not less than 1.5× for hours in excess of 10 in a workday or 48 in a workweek. DLSE 2000.11.03: § 3(K) does not provide for double time after 12 hours; IWC testimony confirms no DT during ski months. The same letter holds that the IWC did not exempt ski employees from Labor Code § 510(a) seventh-day premium (first 8 at 1.5×, over 8 at 2×), including part-time employees under 10/day and 48/week. Hours already at a daily or seventh-day premium are not converted again when weekly 48 is applied. Off-season months and non-ski-establishment amusement/recreation jobs stay on /california-overtime/ (WO 10 § 3(A)(1) LC 510 twin).

12h day 07:00–19:00 @ $20 → 10 regular ($200) + 2 OT ($60) = $260. LC 510 same punches: 8 regular + 4 OT ($280)
Five 10-hour days @ $20 → 48 regular ($960) + 2 weekly OT ($60) = $1,020. Oregon mfg same punches: 40 regular + 10 OT ($1,100)
Six 8-hour days @ $20 → 48 regular ($960). LC 510: 40 regular + 8 weekly OT ($1,040)
Seven 8-hour days @ $20 → 48 regular ($960) + 8 seventh-day OT ($240) = $1,200. LC 510: 40 regular + 16 OT ($1,280)

FAQ

When does California ski-industry overtime start under Wage Order 10?

8 CCR § 11100 § 3(K) and the DIR Exceptions FAQ (Order 10 row): 1.5× for hours over 10 in a workday or over 48 in a workweek during any month when Alpine or Nordic skiing activities, including snowmaking and grooming, are actually being conducted. There is no daily time-and-a-half after 8 and no double time after 12.

Is this the same as California Labor Code 510 overtime?

No. /california-overtime/ is LC 510: 1.5× after 8 through 12, 2× after 12, seventh day, weekly 40. A 12-hour ski day here is 10 regular + 2 overtime and no double time. Five 10-hour days here are 48 regular + 2 overtime; under LC 510 they are 40 regular + 10 overtime.

Does seventh-day premium still apply at a ski establishment?

Yes. DLSE opinion 2000.11.03: Wage Order 10 § 3(K) does not exempt ski employees from Labor Code § 510(a) seventh-day premium. The first 8 hours on the seventh day of work in the workweek are 1.5×; hours over 8 that day are 2×, even if the employee stayed under 10 in a day and 48 in the week.

Is this Oregon manufacturing overtime after 10?

No. /oregon-manufacturing-overtime/ is ORS 652.020 / 653.265: 1.5× after 10 in a day or 40 in a week. This page is weekly 48, California ski establishments only, plus LC 510 seventh day.
