FAQ about Overtime Calculator
How do I calculate overtime?
Subtract target hours from actual hours. If the difference is positive, those are overtime hours. The calculation does that automatically.
How do I calculate the value of overtime?
Multiply overtime hours by hourly wage. If a bonus applies, it is added on top.
Does it include time-off compensation and time accounts?
Yes, as a simple hour split: entered comp time reduces payable overtime. Time accounts, contract details and collective-agreement rules still need a separate check.
Can I use it for salary talks?
Yes, it is very helpful for preparation. For binding conclusions, contract and employer rules remain decisive.
Is the result binding?
No. The calculator is for general information and first orientation only.
Can I also see negative differences?
Yes. The hour difference is shown as well. Positive overtime is simply highlighted separately.
What is the difference between hour difference and overtime?
The hour difference can be positive or negative. Overtime in this calculator is only the positive part of that difference. This lets you see both extra hours and possible shortfalls.
Are overtime bonuses always mandatory?
Not automatically. Whether bonuses are paid, and at what rate, often depends on contract terms, collective agreements, company policy or local labor rules. That is why the calculator lets you enter the bonus manually.
Does it work for part-time work?
Yes. It is especially useful for part-time and flexible schedules because it clearly compares agreed target hours with actual hours worked.
Does it include breaks, night premiums or holiday-work premiums?
No. Those special cases are not automatically included here. The calculator focuses on a simple overtime calculation plus an optional percentage bonus.
