Time and a Half Pay Rate Lookup Chart
Under the United States Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), non-exempt employees are entitled to time and a half pay for any hours worked beyond 40 in a single workweek.
Calculating overtime pay requires multiplying your standard hourly wage rate by 1.5. This guide provides a direct lookup reference chart for standard hourly rates ranging from $15.00 to $50.00 per hour using our Time and a Half Calculator.
The Overtime Rate Formula
$$\text{Overtime Rate} = \text{Standard Hourly Wage} \times 1.5$$
$$\text{Total Overtime Pay} = \text{Overtime Rate} \times \text{Overtime Hours Worked}$$

Overtime Calculation Example
An employee earning $22.00 per hour works 48 hours during a single 7-day workweek:
- Regular Pay (40 hours x $22.00): $880.00
- Overtime Pay (8 hours x $33.00): $264.00
- Total Gross Pay: $$880.00 + $264.00 = \mathbf{$1,144.00}$
