What Overtime Pay does
Splits total hours into normal and overtime at the threshold you set, then pays the overtime portion at your multiplier — 1.5× ("time and a half") is the common statutory rate.
Defaults to a 40-hour normal week, which is the usual threshold, and a base rate of 22 per hour.
Inputs and defaults
| Base hourly rate | Default 22 |
|---|---|
| Normal hours | Default 40 a week |
| Overtime multiplier | 1.5 = time and a half; 2 = double time |
| Overtime hours | Anything above the normal threshold |
| Returns | Normal pay, overtime pay, total |
| Knows your labour law? | <strong>No</strong> |
| Excludes | Tax, deductions, unsocial-hours premiums |
| Salaried staff | May be exempt — depends on jurisdiction |
Detailed steps
- Enter your base hourly rate.
- Set the normal-hours threshold — 40 in many places, but check yours.
- Enter total hours worked and the multiplier.
Worth knowing
Check whether your overtime threshold is weekly or daily, because it changes the answer completely. Some jurisdictions pay overtime after 8 hours in a single day regardless of the weekly total — so four 10-hour days is 8 hours of overtime there and none at all under a 40-hour weekly rule.
Frequently Asked Questions
What multiplier should I use?
1.5 — time and a half — is the most common statutory minimum, with 2× for some holidays or extended hours. Your contract or local law decides, and both can be more generous than the minimum.
Is the threshold daily or weekly?
It depends where you are, and it materially changes the result. Weekly thresholds are commonest, but several jurisdictions use a daily one, and some use both with whichever gives more overtime.
Am I entitled to overtime at all?
That depends on your jurisdiction and classification — many places exempt certain salaried and managerial roles. This calculates the pay for hours you are entitled to; it cannot tell you whether you are entitled.
Is this before or after tax?
Before. It is gross pay. Overtime is usually taxed the same as normal pay, though a large one-off can push a period into a higher withholding bracket even when the annual position is unchanged.
Is Overtime Pay free?
Yes. The Vootkit free plan includes 5 tool runs a day. Upgrade to Vootkit Pro for unlimited daily use, an ad-free workspace and saved workflows.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Overtime Pay runs entirely in your browser — your file is processed on your own device and never sent to a server. There is nothing for us to store or delete.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Overtime Pay works in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone. Open the page and start.
How often can I use it? Is there a daily limit?
On the free plan you get 5 tool runs a day. When you reach the limit you'll see a prompt to upgrade, and it resets the next day. Vootkit Pro removes the cap entirely for unlimited daily use.
