Non profit organization.

Our employer pays on a 40 hour work week Monday through Friday. If an employee uses benefit hours for a day off, for instance sick, personal or vacation hours and works and additional 8 hours on Saturday which would take them over the 40 hours, is that employee eligible for overtime pay?

No

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), 29 USC 207, requires payment of time and a half only if the number of actual hours worked is over 40.

If the employer permits work on Saturday, then do you really need to take all 8 hours of the previously used leave time?
