What the New York order says

Section 142-2.2 of the New York Minimum Wage Order for Miscellaneous Industries and Occupations sets overtime at one and one-half times the employee’s regular rate, in the manner and methods of sections 7 and 13 of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, and its table lists working time over 40 hours for non-residential employees and over 44 hours for residential employees.
The order says it applies to all employees as defined in it, except employees covered by minimum wage standards in any other minimum wage order promulgated by the commissioner. HoursPad does not decide which order covers a job.

Questions

Does this page use the higher line for residential employees?

No. The order's table, quoted below, lists one line for non-residential employees and a higher one for residential employees. The time card's federal option splits the week at 40 hours and has no setting for the higher line. HoursPad does not decide which column fits a job.

Which New York order is quoted?

The Minimum Wage Order for Miscellaneous Industries and Occupations (12 NYCRR Part 142), published by the New York State Department of Labor. The Department publishes other wage orders for other industries, and HoursPad does not say which one covers a job.

How does the time card work out overtime here?

Open Settings and pick "Federal (FLSA)" in the Overtime box if it is not already chosen. It splits the week at 40 hours, and the result is an estimate from the times you type.

Is the result a pay calculation?

No. It is an estimate. Your employer or the New York State Department of Labor can confirm what applies to a job.
