How it works
Regular pay is the first hours, up to the threshold, times the hourly pay. Hours past the threshold are paid at the hourly pay times the multiplier, which is one and a half under the usual 40-hour rule. Add the two for the week's total.
Worked example
For 46 hours at $22.00 an hour, the first 40 hours come to $880.00. The 6 extra hours at 1.5 times the rate add $198.00, so the week totals $1,078.00.
Questions
Do all states use the 40-hour rule?
Not always. Some states set daily overtime or other limits, and some jobs have their own rules. Check the rules where the work is done.
Does this include taxes or deductions?
No. It shows gross pay before taxes and deductions. Your payroll system handles those.
Is the overtime rate always higher?
The usual rule is one and a half times the regular rate. Change the multiplier if a different rate applies to the job.
