Formula Used

Gross Pay Calculation:

Regular Pay = Hourly Wage × Regular Hours

Overtime Pay = Hourly Wage × Overtime Hours × 1.5

Total Gross Pay = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay

Deductions Calculation:

CPP = Total Gross Pay × 0.0525 (5.25%)

EI = Total Gross Pay × 0.0162 (1.62%)

Income Tax = Total Gross Pay × 0.205 (20.5%)

Total Deductions = CPP + EI + Income Tax

Net Pay Calculation:

Net Pay = Total Gross Pay - Total Deductions

These formulas are based on Ontario's standard payroll deductions. For more precise calculations, consult a payroll professional.

Overtime Rates in Ontario

In Ontario, overtime is calculated at 1.5 times the regular hourly wage for hours worked over 44 in a week. The Ontario Employment Standards Act requires employers to pay overtime for hours worked beyond 44 in a week.

For example, if your regular hourly wage is $20, your overtime rate would be $30 per hour.

Tax Deductions

The calculator includes standard Ontario payroll deductions:

  • Canada Pension Plan (CPP) - 5.25%
  • Employment Insurance (EI) - 1.62%
  • Income Tax - 20.5% (progressive rates apply in practice)

Note: These are simplified rates. Actual deductions may vary based on your specific situation and tax brackets.

Worked Example

Let's calculate pay for an employee with:

  • Hourly wage: $20
  • Regular hours: 40
  • Overtime hours: 5

Regular Pay: $20 × 40 = $800

Overtime Pay: $20 × 5 × 1.5 = $150

Total Gross Pay: $800 + $150 = $950

Deductions:

  • CPP: $950 × 0.0525 = $50.13
  • EI: $950 × 0.0162 = $15.49
  • Income Tax: $950 × 0.205 = $194.75
  • Total Deductions: $50.13 + $15.49 + $194.75 = $260.37

Net Pay: $950 - $260.37 = $689.63

This example shows how the calculator computes payroll with overtime in Ontario.
