Firefighters fall into 207(k) exemption of FLSA, which allows for a longer than 7 day overtime reporting period, and also potentially more than 40 hours in a work week. The Firefighter exemption under FLSA 207(k) allows for up to 212 hours in a 28 day period, or some equivalent fraction thereof. We are currently applying an 18 day FLSA period, which allows up to 136 hours worked before overtime is required under FLSA
