Overtime, done right
Overtime depends on where you work. Switch on the rules that apply and the calculator pays each at its own rate, so regular and overtime stay separate and accurate.
| Overtime rule | Kicks in after | Pay rate |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly overtimeFederal (FLSA) | 40 hrs / week | 1.5x |
| Daily overtimeCalifornia & some states | 8 hrs / day | 1.5x |
| Double timeCalifornia, long days | 12 hrs / day | 2x |
This tool gives estimates to help you check a paycheck. Overtime rules vary by state and situation. Confirm your local labor laws, or let Homebase apply the right rules automatically.
