What is the Overtime Pay Calculator?
Enter your regular hourly rate, the hours you worked at your regular rate, and any overtime hours. Under the standard US rule (from the Fair Labor Standards Act, for most non-exempt hourly workers), hours worked over 40 in a week are paid at 1.5x your regular rate — 'time and a half'. This tool applies that real multiplier to your overtime hours and adds it to your regular pay for a real total weekly paycheck, before tax.
Some employers or union contracts also pay double-time (2x) for certain overtime hours, such as hours over 12 in a day in some states, or holiday work — this tool lets you enter double-time hours separately if that applies to you, using the same real multiplication, not a guess.

Questions people ask
What is time and a half?
Paying 1.5 times your regular hourly rate for overtime hours — the standard US federal overtime rate for eligible hourly workers under the Fair Labor Standards Act.
When does overtime kick in?
Under federal law, generally for hours worked over 40 in a single workweek for non-exempt employees; some states also require daily overtime rules, which this tool doesn't model separately.
What is double time?
Paying twice your regular rate, which some employers, union contracts or state rules apply to certain hours (like holidays or very long shifts) — enter these separately if they apply to you.
Is this my take-home pay?
No, this shows your gross (before-tax) pay for the week; use the Hourly to Salary or Paycheck Frequency calculators for an after-tax estimate.
Do salaried employees get overtime?
Most salaried 'exempt' employees do not receive overtime pay by law; this calculator is intended for hourly, overtime-eligible work.
