⏰ Overtime Calculator

About this Overtime Calculator

This overtime calculator converts a monthly salary into an hourly rate, applies the overtime multiplier your workplace uses — 1.5 times (time and a half) is the most common — and totals the overtime pay plus the full month pay. It helps both employers preparing payroll and employees checking that extra hours were paid fairly.

How to use it

1. Enter the monthly salary.
2. Enter the normal contracted hours in a month — 160 is a common figure for an 8-hour, 5-day pattern with allowances for holidays, adjust it to your contract.
3. Enter the overtime hours worked and pick the multiplier.
4. Click Calculate to see the hourly rate, overtime pay and total month pay.

Example

A salary of 80,000 over 160 hours is 500 per hour; 20 overtime hours at 1.5× pay 750 per hour, adding 15,000 for a total month pay of 95,000.
