Overtime pay for salaried non-exempt employees
Some salaried workers are non-exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act and must receive overtime when they work beyond their regular schedule. This calculator derives an implied hourly rate from your base salary, then adds premium pay at 1.5x for overtime hours and 2.0x for double time hours each week.
For hourly workers, use the overtime pay calculator. To convert base salary across pay frequencies, see the rate of pay calculator.

Worked example
A $52,000 annual salary with 40 regular hours per week implies weekly base pay of $1,000 and a base hourly rate of $25. Five overtime hours at 1.5x add $187.50 per week ($37.50/hr). Total weekly gross is $1,187.50, or $61,750 annualized.
