Overtime pay is additional compensation earned for hours worked beyond an employee’s regular working schedule when those hours qualify for overtime under applicable rules or an employer’s policy.
The amount of overtime pay depends on your regular hourly rate and the overtime rate or multiplier used. For example, if your regular hourly rate is $20 and your overtime multiplier is 1.5, your overtime hourly rate would be $30.
Not every job uses the same overtime rules. Your actual overtime eligibility and rate may depend on your employment situation, applicable laws, company policies, and other factors.
This calculator provides an estimate and does not determine whether your hours legally qualify for overtime.
The basic overtime calculation is:
Overtime Hourly Rate = Regular Hourly Rate × Overtime Multiplier
Then:
Overtime Pay = Overtime Hourly Rate × Overtime Hours
Your total weekly pay can be estimated as:
Total Weekly Pay = Regular Weekly Pay + Overtime Pay
For example, if you earn $20 per hour, work 40 regular hours, and work 5 overtime hours at a 1.5× multiplier:
Regular Weekly Pay:
$20 × 40 = $800
Overtime Hourly Rate:
$20 × 1.5 = $30
Overtime Pay:
$30 × 5 = $150
Total Weekly Pay:
$800 + $150 = $950
If the same schedule continues for 52 weeks, the estimated annual pay would be:
$950 × 52 = $49,400
These are gross-pay estimates before taxes and other deductions.
Your overtime earnings change depending on your hourly rate, overtime hours, and overtime multiplier.
For example, at $15 per hour, 5 overtime hours at a 1.5× multiplier would produce an overtime rate of $22.50 per hour and $112.50 in overtime pay.
At $20 per hour, 5 overtime hours at a 1.5× multiplier would produce an overtime rate of $30 per hour and $150 in overtime pay.
At $25 per hour, 5 overtime hours at a 1.5× multiplier would produce an overtime rate of $37.50 per hour and $187.50 in overtime pay.
These examples are estimates and do not account for taxes, deductions, bonuses, or other adjustments.
This calculator uses four main inputs: your regular hourly rate, regular hours per week, overtime hours per week, and overtime rate multiplier.
First, the calculator determines your regular weekly earnings by multiplying your hourly rate by your regular working hours.
Next, it calculates your overtime hourly rate by multiplying your regular hourly rate by the overtime multiplier.
The overtime hourly rate is then multiplied by your overtime hours to estimate your weekly overtime pay.
Finally, regular weekly pay and overtime pay are added together to estimate your total weekly earnings. The calculator also estimates annual pay by multiplying the total weekly pay by 52 weeks.
The results are intended for estimation and may differ from your actual paycheck.
Multiply your regular hourly rate by the overtime multiplier to find your overtime hourly rate. Then multiply that rate by the number of overtime hours worked.
If your overtime multiplier is 1.5×, a $20 hourly rate produces an overtime rate of $30 per hour. Five overtime hours would equal $150 in overtime pay.
At a 1.5× overtime multiplier, a $25 hourly rate produces an overtime rate of $37.50 per hour. Five overtime hours would equal $187.50 in overtime pay.
Not necessarily. The overtime rate can depend on applicable laws, employment arrangements, and employer policies. This calculator allows you to enter the multiplier that applies to your situation.
For official U.S. overtime information, see the U.S. Department of Labor’s overtime pay guidance.
No. The calculator estimates gross earnings before taxes and other deductions. Your actual take-home pay may be lower after taxes, benefits, and other payroll deductions.
Yes. You can enter your actual regular hours and overtime hours. Whether part-time hours qualify for overtime depends on the rules that apply to your employment situation.
Yes. Enter the appropriate overtime multiplier in the Overtime Rate Multiplier field. For example, you can enter 1.5 for one-and-a-half times your regular hourly rate.
Yes. The calculator estimates annual pay by multiplying your total estimated weekly pay by 52 weeks. If you do not work the same schedule every week, your actual annual earnings may be different.
