Regular working hours in Puerto Rico are eight (8) hours during any workday and forty hours (40) during any workweek. Thus eight (8) hours of work constitute the legal workday in Puerto Rico and forty (40) hours of work constitute a workweek.
Extra working hours include: hours that an employee works for his employer in excess of eight (8) hours during any period of twenty-four (24) consecutive hours; hours that an employee works for his employer in excess of forty during any week (unless the hours worked daily in excess of eight are paid at double time rates); hours that an employee works for his employer during the day of rest.
