Overtime hours calculator
Calculate overtime hours by subtracting contracted hours from the hours actually worked.
Calculate overtime hours by subtracting contracted hours from the hours actually worked.
Overtime hours = hours worked − contracted hours. If the person worked the contract or less, overtime is zero.
This counts hours, not money. A 45-hour week against a 37.5-hour contract is 7.5 overtime hours. It does not decide whether those hours are paid, taken as time off, or both. Public holidays and premiums are a second step.
45 hours worked. Contract 37.5. 45 − 37.5.
7.5 overtime hours
36 hours worked against 37.5.

Use the hours the contract calls working time. If lunch is unpaid, leave it out of both numbers. Mixing a paid day with an unpaid lunch makes the overtime look larger than it is.
Yes, if both numbers cover the same period. A monthly total minus a monthly contract works. A monthly total minus a weekly contract does not.
Take the overtime hours into the overtime pay calculator with the hourly rate and the multiplier from the policy.
Hours at or under the contract are not overtime.
