How this calculation works
"Time and a half" is the common name for the FLSA overtime multiplier of 1.5× your regular rate. For a $20/hour worker, that is $30/hour on overtime hours.
Your "regular rate" is not always your base hourly wage. Under FLSA, non-discretionary bonuses, commissions, and shift differentials are included in the calculation, producing a blended regular rate. Overtime is then owed at 1.5× that blended figure.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does "time and a half" mean?
It means 1.5× your regular rate of pay. If your regular rate is $20/hour, time and a half is $30/hour, paid for overtime hours over 40 in a workweek.
How is the "regular rate" calculated if I earn bonuses?
Under FLSA, non-overtime bonuses and commissions are folded back into total weekly earnings, then divided by total hours worked, to derive the regular rate. Overtime is then 1.5× that blended rate.
