FAQ

Overtime pay is additional compensation for hours worked beyond a standard threshold. In the US, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires 1.5x (time and a half) for hours over 40 per week for eligible employees.

Regular pay covers hours up to the threshold (usually 40). Overtime pay is hours beyond the threshold multiplied by the overtime rate (1.5x or 2x). Total pay = regular hours × rate + overtime hours × overtime rate.

No. Overtime rules vary by country and industry. This calculator allows you to set a custom overtime rate.
