Overtime Pay Calculator
Estimate your overtime earnings when you work more than the standard weekly hours. Enter your regular hourly rate and the number of regular and overtime hours; the calculator applies a multiplier (e.g. 1.5 for time and a half) to overtime hours. Rules vary by location—use this for estimation only.
Calculate overtime pay
How it works
Regular pay = Regular hours × Rate. Overtime pay = Overtime hours × Rate × Multiplier. Total = Regular pay + Overtime pay. Example: $20/hour, 40 regular and 8 overtime at 1.5×. Regular = $800, OT = 8 × 20 × 1.5 = $240, total = $1,040.
When to use it
Use it to check your paycheck or to see how much extra you earn when working overtime. Always verify with your employer’s payroll; some jurisdictions have daily or weekly thresholds and different rules for certain jobs.
Frequently asked questions
- What is time and a half? 1.5 times your regular hourly rate. So $20/hour becomes $30/hour for overtime hours.
- Does this match my country's rules? Overtime rules vary by country and sometimes by job. This tool is generic; confirm with your employer or labor authority.
