Overtime Pay = Overtime Hours × Hourly Rate × Overtime Multiplier
Under the basic federal rule, covered nonexempt employees generally receive overtime at no less than 1.5 times the regular rate after 40 hours in a fixed workweek. This estimate does not average hours across weeks or treat weekend and holiday work as automatic overtime.
Overtime pay is additional compensation for eligible employees who work beyond the overtime threshold. Under the basic federal rule, eligible overtime is paid at no less than 1.5 times the regular rate.
Some employees may be exempt from federal overtime requirements, and state or local laws may provide greater protections. Payroll teams should verify job classification, plan rules, and applicable law.
The base hourly rate is an employee's standard rate of pay. The regular rate can include eligible nondiscretionary bonuses and shift differentials, which may change the overtime premium. Complex compensation arrangements may require payroll or legal review.

No. Federal overtime is calculated separately for each fixed workweek. This calculator does not average hours across two or more weeks.
The regular rate can include eligible compensation such as nondiscretionary bonuses and shift differentials. The advanced mode estimates the regular rate using the compensation you enter.
