📘 About the Overtime Pay Calculator

Overtime is usually paid at 1.5 times your normal hourly rate ("time and a half"), and sometimes double time on holidays or very long days. Under US federal law non-exempt employees must get time and a half for hours over 40 in a week.

The calculator also shows the overtime premium — the extra above your normal rate — which is what the US "no tax on overtime" deduction covers.
