How to use: Enter your hourly rate, total hours, the weekly threshold where overtime starts, the multiplier, and any double-time hours.

Work out your regular pay, overtime at time and a half, double time and total gross pay for the week.

How overtime is calculated

Hours up to the threshold are paid at your normal rate; hours above it are paid at the multiplier (usually 1.5×, “time and a half”). Some jobs pay 2× for holidays or long shifts.

Common thresholds

Check your employer and local labour rules. Convert to annual pay with the salary calculator or add up shifts with the hours calculator.
