How overtime pay works
Enter the total hours you worked in the week, your overtime threshold (40 under the FLSA), your hourly rate and the overtime multiplier (usually 1.5×, sometimes 2× for double time). The calculator splits your hours into regular and overtime, then multiplies overtime hours by rate × multiplier to show overtime pay and total gross pay.
Example
At $20/hour, 46 hours with a 40-hour threshold and 1.5× is 40 regular + 6 overtime: $800 + (6 × $30) = $980 gross. Change the threshold to 8 if you're figuring daily overtime for a single long shift.
