How this overtime pay calculator works

It splits your pay into regular, overtime, and double-time, then adds them up.

  • Regular pay = hourly rate × regular hours.
  • Overtime pay = hourly rate × multiplier (usually 1.5) × overtime hours.
  • Double-time pay = hourly rate × 2 × double-time hours.
  • Total gross = regular + overtime + double-time pay.

US federal law sets overtime at 1.5× for hours over 40 per week; some states add daily rules.
