Frequently Asked Questions

What is time and a half?

Overtime paid at 1.5 times the regular hourly rate. Double time is 2x. Which rate applies depends on local law and your contract.

Which hours count as overtime?

In many jurisdictions overtime starts after a threshold per week (often 40 hours), but rules vary — enter the split your employer uses.

Does overtime push me into a higher tax bracket?

Overtime is taxed as ordinary income, but only the extra amount can move into a higher marginal rate — it does not change the rate applied to your regular pay.
