How weekly OT splits work

Threshold

Hours at or below the threshold earn straight time.

Excess hours

Everything above the threshold earns the overtime multiplier.

Formula reference

Hours above the threshold are paid at the overtime multiplier under typical federal weekly OT models.

Weekly overtime split

Useful when you know total hours but need to separate regular from OT for pay estimation.

Step-by-step

  1. Enter total hours worked in the week.
  2. Set OT threshold (40 under federal default).
  3. Choose overtime multiplier.

Worked examples

45-hour week

45 hours with 40-hour threshold → 40 regular + 5 overtime hours at 1.5×.

Pay estimate

$18/hr: 40 × $18 + 5 × $27 = $720 + $135 = $855.
