Time and a Half (1.5x)
Time and a half means overtime pay at 1.5 times your regular hourly rate. Under the FLSA, non-exempt employees who work over 40 hours per week are entitled to this rate for overtime hours.
Double Time Pay (2x)
Double time is overtime paid at 2x your regular hourly rate. Some employers offer this for work on holidays, weekends, or when exceeding certain thresholds beyond standard overtime.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about overtime pay calculations.
Time and a half refers to overtime pay calculated at 1.5 times an employee's regular hourly rate. For example, if your regular rate is $20/hour, time and a half would be $30/hour. Under federal law (FLSA), non-exempt employees must receive at least time and a half for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek.
Overtime is calculated by multiplying your overtime hours by 1.5 times your regular hourly rate. The formula is: Overtime Pay = Overtime Hours × (Hourly Rate × 1.5). Regular pay is your standard hours × hourly rate. Total gross pay adds regular pay, overtime pay, and any double time pay together.
Double time is overtime paid at 2 times your regular hourly rate. It is often paid for work on federal holidays, Sundays, or hours worked beyond a certain threshold such as after 12 hours in a day or on a seventh consecutive day. Not all employers offer double time.
