Overtime Pay Calculator
Estimate regular pay, overtime pay, total weekly gross pay, and your effective hourly rate using the overtime multiplier that applies to your situation.
Calculate overtime pay
Formula
Regular pay = hourly rate × regular hours. Overtime pay = hourly rate × overtime multiplier × overtime hours.
Best for
Estimating weekly gross pay when you already know your regular rate, overtime hours, and applicable multiplier.
Not included
Taxes, deductions, bonuses, shift differentials, daily overtime rules, and legal overtime eligibility are not determined here.
How the Overtime Pay Calculator Works
The calculator multiplies your regular hourly rate by regular hours, then calculates overtime hours at the multiplier you enter. It adds both amounts to estimate weekly gross pay before taxes and deductions.
Example
At a regular rate of $20 per hour, 40 regular hours produce $800 in regular pay. Five overtime hours at 1.5× produce $150 in overtime pay, for an estimated weekly gross total of $950.
When this calculator is useful
Use it to estimate the impact of extra hours on weekly gross pay, compare schedules, or sanity-check a paycheck estimate when the overtime rate is already known.
What this calculator does not tell you
This tool does not determine whether you are legally entitled to overtime or what multiplier applies. Overtime rules vary by country, state or province, occupation, contract, and sometimes by daily versus weekly hours.

Can I calculate double time?
Yes. Enter 2.0 as the overtime multiplier.
Is this take-home pay?
No. The result is a gross-pay estimate before taxes, benefits, deductions, or other payroll adjustments.
