Total Earnings

Total earnings = Regular pay + Overtime pay (if applicable)

This calculator uses Ontario's standard overtime rules where applicable. For more complex scenarios, consult a payroll professional.

Worked Examples

Example 1: Regular Workweek

If you work 40 hours at $20/hour:

  • Regular pay = $20 × 40 = $800
  • Overtime pay = $0 (no overtime)
  • Total earnings = $800

Example 2: Overtime Workweek

If you work 46 hours at $20/hour:

  • Regular pay = $20 × 44 = $880
  • Overtime pay = 2 × ($20 × 1.5) = $60
  • Total earnings = $880 + $60 = $940

Note

Overtime is calculated only for hours worked beyond 44 in a workweek. The calculator assumes a standard 44-hour workweek.
