Overtime/pay periods.

I work a rolling 4 on 4 off 12 hour shift schedule. My employers pay periods run Monday to Sunday. To keep it simple, when your work days roll around to weekend and into the next week. You work a total of 48 hours but when you overlap the pay period resetting all your hours are paid at straight time. The 8 that are over 40 are paid at straight time bc they say they’re pay period resets. To my knowledge overtime should be paid at hours in excess of 40 but they claim bc the pay period they don’t have to pay the over time bc 24 hours goes on one week and 24 on the other week? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
