Estimates use standard overtime math. Not legal or payroll advice — confirm rates and rules with your employer or labor authority.

How overtime is calculated

Overtime pay = overtime hours × hourly rate × multiplier (usually 1.5, sometimes 2). In the US, the federal FLSA sets the threshold at 40 hours per week; California also uses a daily threshold of 8 hours. Shift differentials add a flat dollar amount per hour for night, weekend, or holiday work. Enter regular hours, overtime hours and multiplier, plus any shift differentials; the calculator totals your gross pay.

State & country rules

Overtime thresholds and multipliers vary by location and employer — verify against your local labor law.
