How Overtime Wage Math Works
Standard overtime is typically calculated as Regular Hourly Rate × 1.5 for hours worked beyond 40 per week under the US Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Double-time (2.0x) frequently applies to holiday shifts, 7th consecutive workdays, or specialized union agreements.
Jurisdiction Notice: Labor laws vary significantly across countries, states, and industries. For example, California mandates daily overtime (>8 hrs) and double time (>12 hrs), whereas federal FLSA applies weekly (>40 hrs). Always review local employment regulations.
