Conservative coalition's Project 2025 sought to reduce frequency of employers having to pay employees higher wages for working overtime by calling for a change in the way work hours are counted.

Project 2025 did indeed call for Congress to allow employers and employees to adopt its proposed model for an increased overtime period.

But, it did not explicitly state that every company should comply with this model.
