What Is A Workweek?

Your employer calculates your wages separately for each workweek.  A workweek is a fixed 7-day period set by your employer.  Your employer can start the workweek on any day of the week, and at any hour of the day.  Different workweeks can be established for different groups of employees all working for the same employer.

The minimum wage requirement must be met for each workweek.  Your employer can't average out your wages over a period longer than a week.
