Quickly estimate your extra earnings based on hourly rates
Calculating overtime involves determining your base pay and applying a multiplier to any additional hours worked beyond your standard contract.
Time and a half is a common overtime rate where an employee earns 1.5 times their regular hourly wage for every hour worked beyond the standard 40-hour work week.
Double time is a rate of pay equal to twice the standard hourly rate. This is usually applied for working on holidays, Sundays, or after exceeding a certain number of overtime hours.
In many regions, labor laws require employers to pay overtime for work exceeding 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. Always check your specific local labor regulations or employment contract.
