Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate overtime pay?

Multiply regular hours by the base hourly rate, then multiply overtime hours by the base rate and the overtime multiplier, commonly 1.5x for time and a half.

What is time and a half?

Time and a half means 1.5 times the regular hourly rate. If your rate is $20 per hour, time and a half is $30 per overtime hour.

How do I calculate double time?

Double time usually means 2 times the regular hourly rate. Enter a double-time threshold and multiplier to estimate those hours separately.

Does overtime start after 40 hours?

In many weekly overtime rules, overtime begins after 40 worked hours in a workweek. Some locations or contracts also use daily overtime rules.

Can this calculate daily overtime?

Yes. Daily mode uses seven daily hour tiles, a daily overtime threshold, and a double-time threshold to estimate daily premium hours.

Does this avoid double-counting overtime?

Daily mode applies daily overtime first, then applies weekly overtime only to remaining regular hours above the weekly threshold.

Can I subtract unpaid lunch breaks?

Yes. Enter unpaid breaks and the calculator subtracts them before estimating worked hours and pay.

What is blended hourly rate?

Blended hourly rate is the estimated gross pay divided by total worked hours after breaks. It shows the effective average rate after overtime premiums.

Can this calculate holiday pay?

Yes. Use the holiday preset or enter a custom multiplier if your employer offers holiday premium pay.

Is this payroll legal advice?

No. This calculator gives an estimate only. Overtime laws vary by location, role, contract, and employer policy, so verify final payroll rules.

Is my payroll data uploaded?

No. Hourly rate, hours, thresholds, multipliers, daily tiles, and summaries are calculated locally in your browser.

Can I copy the overtime result?

Yes. Copy Summary gives regular hours, overtime hours, double-time hours, gross pay estimate, and blended rate.
