    If this company is in the US, overtime isn’t mandatory for all job categories. If they’re on a salary or some other excepted position (can’t remember if there are other excepted categories), then overtime pay isn’t required by law.

      Yes, but if they’re salaried no one would be talking about overtime in the first place. There’s no middle ground, here.

        I was just pointing out a caveat to the comment I replied to. We don’t know the entire context here one way or another (e.g. Is the owner talking about hourly employees or possibly offering pay incentives to salaried employees to work overtime?).
