What is an Overtime Calculator?
An overtime calculator helps hourly workers estimate how much they earn when they work beyond their regular schedule. Enter your hourly rate, regular hours, overtime hours, and the applicable multiplier to see a clear breakdown of regular pay, overtime pay, and total earnings.
Federal overtime rules in the U.S. generally require time-and-a-half for hours over 40 per week, but state laws and employer policies can differ. Always confirm your specific overtime rate with your employer or HR department.
This calculator is free, runs entirely in your browser, and requires no signup. Use it alongside our Time and a Half Calculator or Paycheck Calculator for a complete picture of your earnings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about calculating overtime pay.
Overtime pay equals your regular hourly rate multiplied by the overtime multiplier (typically 1.5× or 2×) and then multiplied by the number of overtime hours worked. Regular pay is calculated separately at your base rate.
In the United States, federal law requires overtime at 1.5× the regular rate for hours over 40 in a workweek. Some employers or union contracts use 2× for holidays or Sundays.
Yes. Select "Custom" from the multiplier dropdown and enter your specific rate — for example, 1.75× if that is what your employer or contract specifies.
No. This tool shows gross overtime earnings before taxes and deductions. Use our Paycheck Calculator for a basic net pay estimate.
