About the Time and a Half Calculator
This calculator multiplies your regular hourly rate by 1.5 (or 2 for double time) and by your overtime hours, then adds your regular pay to show the total for the week. It follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act rule: overtime is owed for hours over 40 in a workweek.
How to use it
- Enter your regular hourly rate and the regular hours you work in the week.
- Enter your overtime hours and choose time and a half, double time or double time and a half.
- Read your overtime rate, overtime pay and total weekly pay.
How to calculate time and a half
Time and a half rate = regular hourly rate × 1.5. Overtime pay = time and a half rate × overtime hours. Total pay = regular hours × regular rate + overtime pay.
Example: you earn $20 an hour and work 45 hours. Regular pay is 40 × $20 = $800. The time and a half rate is $30, so 5 overtime hours pay $150. Total weekly pay is $950.

When do you get time and a half?
- Federal rule (FLSA): hours over 40 in a workweek for non-exempt employees. Each workweek stands alone; hours cannot be averaged over two weeks.
- Daily overtime: not required by federal law, but some states add it. California requires time and a half after 8 hours in a day and double time after 12.
- Holidays and weekends: no federal premium unless those hours push you over 40 in the week.
- Exempt employees: salaried executive, administrative and professional workers paid at least $684 a week are generally not entitled to overtime.
- Regular rate: it includes most bonuses and shift differentials, so overtime can be higher than 1.5 times your base wage.

How do you calculate time and a half?
Multiply your regular hourly rate by 1.5, then multiply by the overtime hours. Example: $18 × 1.5 = $27 an hour; 6 overtime hours × $27 = $162 of overtime pay.
Do you get time and a half on holidays or weekends?
Federal law does not require extra pay for holidays, weekends or nights. Time and a half is only required for hours over 40 in a workweek, unless your employer, union contract or state law gives more. California, for example, also requires overtime after 8 hours in a day.
How is time and a half calculated for salaried employees?
If you are salaried but non-exempt, divide your weekly salary by the hours it covers (usually 40) to get the regular rate, then multiply by 1.5. A $1,000 weekly salary is $25 an hour, so overtime is $37.50 an hour.
Is time and a half taxed more?
No. Overtime is taxed at the same rates as regular pay, although a bigger paycheck can have more withheld. For 2025 to 2028 the premium part of overtime can be deducted on your federal return: see the no tax on overtime calculator.
