Assumptions used

What this answer assumes

Best for one-pay-period arithmetic after qualifying time-and-a-half hours are already known.

  • The multiplier is fixed at 1.5× because this page is specifically for time-and-a-half arithmetic.
  • Regular hours and time-and-a-half hours are entered by the user; this calculator does not decide which hours legally qualify.
  • The result is gross pay before tax, deductions, pension, superannuation, benefits, allowances, reimbursements or payroll rounding.
  • Use the governing workplace rule, contract, award, union agreement or local law for official payroll decisions.

Master’s Tip

How to use the result well

Master’s Tip: keep the qualifying-hours rule beside the pay arithmetic. The 1.5× multiplication is simple; deciding whether an hour is eligible can depend on weekly thresholds, daily rules, public holidays, classification and local law.

Method

Time-and-a-half rate = base hourly rate × 1.5. Regular pay = regular hours × base hourly rate. Premium pay = time-and-a-half hours × base hourly rate × 1.5. Gross pay = regular pay + premium pay + extra pay.

  1. At a base rate of 25 per hour, time-and-a-half rate is 25 × 1.5 = 37.50. Regular pay is 40 × 25 = 1,000. Premium pay is 5 × 37.50 = 187.50. Gross pay is 1,000 + 187.50 = 1,187.50.

Assumptions

  • The multiplier is fixed at 1.5× because this page is specifically for time-and-a-half arithmetic.
  • Regular hours and time-and-a-half hours are entered by the user; this calculator does not decide which hours legally qualify.
  • The result is gross pay before tax, deductions, pension, superannuation, benefits, allowances, reimbursements or payroll rounding.
  • Use the governing workplace rule, contract, award, union agreement or local law for official payroll decisions.
