Work out your overtime pay here – or let the free AI Time Tracker count your overtime for you.
AI Time Tracker is a desktop app for Mac and Windows that helps you fill in your time card.
Type what you earn per hour and how many regular hours you work in a month. The calculator works out your regular monthly pay.
Enter the overtime hours you worked this month. The multiplier is 1.5 by default – "time and a half", the federal standard – but you can change it if your contract or state uses a different rate.
The summary shows your regular pay, the overtime hourly rate, the overtime pay and the total monthly pay.
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, non-exempt employees in the US must be paid at least 1.5 times their regular rate for every hour worked over 40 in a workweek. Some states add daily overtime – for example, California counts it after 8 hours a day – so check the rules that apply to you before you accept a company policy at face value.
Yes. The TimeCamp overtime calculator is free, with no sign-up and no download. Enter your rate and hours as many times as you like.
Multiply your overtime hours by your hourly rate and by the overtime multiplier. At the federal default of 1.5 ("time and a half"), 10 overtime hours at $23/hour add up to 10 × 23 × 1.5 = $345. Add that to your regular pay to get your total.
Time and a half means 1.5 times your regular hourly rate – the minimum overtime rate for most US workers under the FLSA. Some contracts and states use double time (×2) for holidays or very long shifts; change the multiplier field to match yours.
The federal standard counts overtime after 40 hours in a workweek. Several states add daily overtime – California, for example, after 8 hours a day. This calculator counts the hours you mark as overtime, so decide which hours qualify first; the time card calculator can split a week into regular and overtime hours for you.
No. Overtime is taxed at the same rates as your other income – there is no special overtime tax. A bigger paycheck can land in a higher withholding bracket for that month, but at the end of the year it is all one income taxed by the same rules.
Sometimes. US exemptions depend on your job duties and a salary threshold, not just the word "salaried" – many employees who assume they are exempt are not. If you are unsure, ask your HR department or your state labor office.
Set the multiplier to what your state or contract requires and count the qualifying hours as overtime. The math is the same – it is the rules for which hours qualify and at what rate that differ by state.
There is no federal cap on overtime hours for adults, but some states require rest periods or overtime approval, and some industries have their own safety rules. Check your contract and local law before working unlimited extra hours.
