Formula Explained

The Red Cort Time Card calculation uses the following formula:

Regular Pay = Regular Hours × Pay Rate

Overtime Pay = Overtime Hours × (Pay Rate × Overtime Multiplier)

Total Earnings = Regular Pay + Overtime Pay

Where:

  • Regular Hours = Total Hours worked up to standard work hours (usually 40 hours per week)
  • Overtime Hours = Total Hours worked beyond standard work hours
  • Pay Rate = Your hourly wage
  • Overtime Multiplier = Typically 1.5 or 2 depending on company policy

Worked Example

Let's calculate a Red Cort Time Card for an employee who worked 45 hours in a week with a pay rate of $20/hour and a 1.5x overtime multiplier.

  1. Regular Hours = 40 (standard work week)
  2. Overtime Hours = 5 (45 - 40)
  3. Regular Pay = 40 × $20 = $800
  4. Overtime Pay = 5 × ($20 × 1.5) = 5 × $30 = $150
  5. Total Earnings = $800 + $150 = $950

This employee would earn $950 for the week.
