Salaried Overtime Calculator
Instantly convert your fixed salary into an hourly rate to estimate your time and a half premium pay for hours worked over 40.
Your estimated annual salary is $48000.00. This meets the general federal minimum salary floor for exemption. However, you must ALSO pass the 'Duties Test' (Executive, Administrative, or Professional) to be legally exempt from overtime.
Estimated Results (If Non-Exempt)
Are salaried employees entitled to overtime?
Yes. Being paid a "salary" does not automatically mean you are exempt from overtime pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
To be exempt from overtime, an employee must meet all three of the following tests:
- Salary Basis Test: You must be paid a predetermined, fixed salary that is not subject to reduction based on quality or quantity of work.
- Salary Level Test: You must earn at least the federal threshold (which has seen updates recently to $43,888+ annually, or $844/week).
- Duties Test: Your primary job duties must involve high-level executive, administrative, or professional tasks.
