How Overtime is Calculated

Overtime pay multiplies the base hourly rate by the overtime multiplier and the number of extra hours worked.

Mathematical Formula
Overtime Pay = Hourly Rate × Multiplier × Overtime Hours Total Pay = (Hourly Rate × Regular Hours) + Overtime Pay
Formula Variables & Logic

Under FLSA rules, hours worked beyond 40 hours in a single workweek generally qualify for at least 1.5x regular pay.

Worked Example: Weekly Overtime Shift
Sample Calculation
Scenario: An employee earning $24/hour works 48 hours in a week (40 regular hours + 8 overtime hours at 1.5x).
Step-by-step breakdown
  1. 1Regular Pay = 40 × $24 = $960.00
  2. 2Overtime Rate = $24 × 1.5 = $36.00/hour
  3. 3Overtime Pay = 8 × $36.00 = $288.00
  4. 4Total Gross Pay = $960 + $288 = $1,248.00
Estimated Result
Total gross earnings are $1,248.00 ($288 in overtime pay).
