How to use it
- Input
- $20.00 per hour, 45h 00m in the workweek
- Calculation
- 45h 00m − 40h 00m = 5h 00m overtime at $30.00 per hour
- Result
- $800.00 + $150.00 = $950.00 estimated gross pay
- Input
- $15.25 per hour, 52h 30m in the workweek
- Calculation
- 12h 30m overtime × $15.25 × 1.5 = $285.94
- Result
- $610.00 + $285.94 = $895.94 estimated gross pay

- Enter the total hours and minutes you worked in one workweek.

How it works
Hours up to the threshold are regular hours; hours above it are overtime. The workweek is a fixed period of seven days, and each workweek is calculated on its own.
Overtime pay is calculated from exact minutes and rounded to the cent once. The overtime rate shown next to the result is rounded for display only.
The defaults follow the general federal rule for covered, non-exempt employees: at least one and a half times the regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek. The calculator uses the hourly rate you enter; it does not work out a regular rate that includes bonuses, commissions or shift pay.
regular = min(hours worked, threshold)
overtime = max(0, hours worked − threshold)
overtime pay = round(overtime minutes × rate × multiplier ÷ 60)Limitation. Overtime and gross pay are estimates based on the settings you enter. Actual pay rules may differ.
Note. HourCalio does not decide whether you are covered or exempt, apply state or daily overtime rules, or determine wages that are legally owed.

Frequently asked questions
What is time and a half?
Overtime paid at 1.5 times the hourly rate. At $20.00 per hour, each overtime hour pays $30.00, so 5 hours of overtime pay $150.00.
Why not multiply the overtime hours by the rounded overtime rate?
The rounded rate can change the cents. 12h 30m at $15.25 × 1.5 is $285.94 from exact minutes, while 12.5 × $22.88 would give $286.00.
Does it apply daily overtime?
No. It compares the hours in one workweek with your weekly threshold. Some states, such as California, also have daily overtime rules; this calculator does not apply them.
Can I average two weeks?
No. Overtime is checked one workweek at a time. For two weeks of clock-in and clock-out times, use the Time Card Calculator, which keeps each week separate.
Does it include taxes?
No. It shows estimated gross pay before taxes and deductions. HourCalio does not calculate net pay.
