The overtime formula
Overtime pay = overtime hours × hourly rate × multiplier. Regular pay = regular hours × hourly rate. The total is the two added together.
Example: 46 hours at $18 with overtime after 40. That is 40 regular hours ($720) and 6 overtime hours at $27 ($162), $882 in total.
Time and a half and double time
Time and a half means 1.5 times the normal rate. Double time means 2 times the rate and is often used for holidays or very long days. Enter double time hours separately if you have them; they are not counted again as overtime.
Questions
What is time and a half for $20 an hour?
$30 an hour. Multiply the hourly rate by 1.5.
After how many hours does overtime start?
Many employers use 40 hours a week, and some places also count hours over 8 in a day. Check your contract or local rules and set the threshold to match.
How do I calculate overtime for a salaried job?
Convert the salary to an hourly rate first: weekly salary divided by the hours it covers. Then use that rate here.
Guides
- How to Calculate Overtime Pay (Time and a Half and Double Time)To calculate overtime pay, multiply your hourly rate by 1.5 to get the overtime rate, then multiply that by your overtime hours. Add it to your regular pay for the total. Double time works the same way with 2 instead of 1.5.
- How to Calculate Hours Worked (With Lunch, Overnight Shifts and Weekly Totals)To calculate hours worked, subtract your start time from your end time, then subtract any unpaid lunch break. Convert the result to decimal hours by dividing the minutes by 60, and add up the days to get your weekly total.
