How Overtime Wages Are Calculated

Under labor standards (such as the FLSA in the United States), non-exempt employees must receive premium compensation for hours worked beyond 40 hours in a single workweek. The calculations process is defined below:

1. Calculate Regular Earnings:

Regular Pay = Regular Hours * Hourly Rate

2. Solve Overtime Rate & Pay:

Overtime Rate = Hourly Rate * Multiplier (e.g., 1.5)
Overtime Pay = Overtime Hours * Overtime Rate

3. Solve Total Gross & Effective Rate:

Total Gross Pay = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay
Effective Rate = Total Gross Pay / (Regular Hours + Overtime Hours)
