Overtime Calculator

Overtime pay is typically calculated at “time and a half,” meaning 1.5 times an employee’s regular hourly rate for all hours worked over 40 in a workweek, as mandated by federal law (FLSA) for non-exempt employees.
Q2: Who is eligible for overtime pay?
A2: Eligibility for overtime pay generally applies to non-exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Exempt employees, such as certain administrative, executive, and professional employees, are typically not eligible for overtime.

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that establishes minimum wage, overtime pay eligibility, recordkeeping, and child labor standards affecting full-time and part-time workers in the private sector and in federal, state, and local governments.

Yes, while the FLSA sets a federal baseline, many states have their own laws regarding overtime pay that can be more generous than federal requirements, such as daily overtime (e.g., California) or different calculations for certain industries.
