Uses the standard FLSA 1.5x overtime rate. This calculator assumes the employee is nonexempt and overtime-eligible. State rules, contracts, bonuses, commissions, and exemption status can change the result.
How This Calculator Works
This overtime pay calculator estimates compensation for nonexempt employees under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Under the standard federal rule, overtime is paid at one and one-half times the employee's regular rate of pay for hours worked over 40 in a single workweek.
For hourly employees, the calculator uses the regular hourly rate you enter. For salaried employees, it converts annual salary to an hourly rate by dividing salary by 2,080, which represents 40 hours per week for 52 weeks.
The result separates regular pay from overtime pay so you can see the added employer cost clearly. It also shows the overtime premium portion, which is the extra half-time amount above straight-time wages for overtime hours.
