How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter your regular hours worked per day or week (e.g., 40).
  2. Enter your overtime hours worked (e.g., 10).
  3. Enter your overtime multiplier (e.g., 1.5 for time and a half).
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to see your overtime percentage and gross pay.

Understanding the Formula

The calculator uses the following formula to determine your overtime percentage:

Overtime Percentage = (Overtime Hours × Overtime Multiplier) / Regular Hours × 100%

This shows what percentage of your regular pay is made up of overtime pay.

Example

Suppose you work 40 regular hours and 10 overtime hours with a 1.5x multiplier:

  • Regular Pay: 40 hours × $20/hour = $800
  • Overtime Pay: 10 hours × $30/hour = $300
  • Total Pay: $800 + $300 = $1100
  • Overtime Percentage: ($300 / $800) × 100 = 37.5%

Important Notes

This calculator provides a basic calculation of overtime percentage and gross pay. Actual overtime pay may vary based on your specific employment contract, local labor laws, and tax considerations.
