Frequently asked questions

How is overtime pay calculated?

Overtime pay = overtime hours × hourly rate × overtime multiplier. At 20 an hour and time and a half, the overtime rate is 30, so 6 hours of overtime adds 180 on top of the 800 for the first 40 hours.

What does time and a half mean?

Time and a half means overtime is paid at 1.5 times the normal hourly rate. Double time means 2 times, often used for Sundays, public holidays or very long shifts.

When does overtime start?

It depends on where you work and your contract. In the US, the Fair Labor Standards Act requires overtime for non-exempt employees after 40 hours in a workweek, and some states add daily limits. In many other countries the rules are set by contract or collective agreement. Check your local law.

What is the average hourly rate?

Your total pay divided by all the hours you worked. It shows what each hour earned you on average once overtime is included.
