International overtime calculators
for global workforce laws
Calculate overtime pay under country-specific rules without forcing every jurisdiction into a U.S. time-and-a-half model. Start with UK contractual overtime, Europe's 48-hour working-time framework, or Australia's award-based penalty rates.
UK overtime pay calculator
Estimate UK overtime pay using your contract rate, minimum wage floor, and the 48-hour average weekly limit.
Min Wage Floor: £12.71/hour (National Living Wage for ages 21+ effective 1 April 2026)
Default shown is for workers aged 21 and over from 1 April 2026. Younger workers and apprentices may have different National Minimum Wage rates.
UK wage and working-time rules
In the United Kingdom, there is no automatic statutory right to receive extra pay for working overtime. However, employers must ensure that the employee's average pay rate does not fall below the correct National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage rate. Overtime multipliers (like 1.5× 'time and a half' or 2.0× 'double time' for Sundays) are contractual. Under the UK Working Time Regulations, most adult workers cannot work more than 48 hours a week on average, usually averaged over 17 weeks, unless they sign a voluntary written opt-out.
Use the multiplier from your contract, handbook, rota policy, or collective agreement.
Working time and rest checklist
The UK Working Time Regulations limit most adult workers to an average of 48 hours a week, usually averaged over 17 weeks, unless they voluntarily opt out in writing.
