Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Re: Overtime

No. If you are an employer, you should be careful and not to do that. Many of employee's rights cannot be waived. This means that even if you agree with your employee that you won't pay overtime and have a different arrangement, he can still come and sue you for unpaid overtime later, regardless of your arrangement, and you will almost certainly lose in that case, so avoid any alternate arrangement and make sure all the overtime is paid properly and promptly.

An employee can request this, but it can't legally be done. The overtime law is not waivable.
