Overtime Pay Calculator Philippines
Calculate estimated overtime pay based on your hourly rate, overtime hours, and the type of day the overtime falls on.
This calculator provides an estimate based on the information entered and applicable Philippine overtime-pay rules. Actual compensation may vary depending on employment classification, work schedule, company payroll policies, applicable regulations, and other compensation rules.
How is overtime pay calculated?
The applicable overtime rate depends on the type of day the overtime falls on. A higher-premium day (a rest day or holiday) means a higher overtime rate — never lower than an ordinary working day.
| Type of Day | First 8 Hours | Overtime Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Ordinary Working Day | 100% | 1.25× |
| Rest Day | 130% | 1.69× |
| Special Non-Working Day | 130% | 1.69× |
| Special Non-Working Day + Rest Day | 150% | 1.95× |
| Regular Holiday | 200% | 2.60× |
| Regular Holiday + Rest Day | 260% | 3.38× |

Important information
What is overtime?
Overtime is work performed beyond the normal 8 hours a day.
What counts as overtime?
Hours actually worked beyond your normal 8-hour workday, on any day type. This calculator assumes you already know how many overtime hours you worked.
Does overtime pay apply to everyone?
Not automatically — coverage can depend on your employment classification. Managerial employees and certain other categories are generally excluded from overtime pay rules under the Labor Code.
Is overtime different on holidays?
Yes. The type of day — ordinary, rest day, special non-working day, or regular holiday, and whether it coincides with your rest day — changes the applicable overtime multiplier, from 125% up to 338%.
Does this include night differential?
No. Night differential (for hours worked between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM) is a separate premium, calculated independently of overtime.
Does this include deductions?
No. This estimates overtime pay before any statutory or company deductions.
Does this calculate total payroll?
No. This calculates overtime pay only, not your complete payroll.
Frequently asked questions
Overtime pay is your hourly rate × the applicable overtime multiplier × your overtime hours. The multiplier depends on the type of day the overtime falls on — see the day-type options in the calculator above.
On an ordinary working day, overtime is paid at 125% of your hourly rate — your regular hourly rate plus at least 25%, per Article 87 of the Labor Code.
Yes. Work on a rest day is already paid at 130% of your hourly rate, and overtime on top of that is paid at 169% (130% × 130%) — higher than an ordinary working day's 125%.
It depends on the specific holiday and whether it coincides with your rest day. Overtime on a regular holiday is paid at 260% of your hourly rate; if that regular holiday also falls on your rest day, it rises to 338%.
No. Night differential (for hours worked between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM) is a separate premium and isn't included in this calculator.
No. This calculates estimated overtime pay only — not your full take-home pay, which would also involve your regular pay, other premiums, and deductions.
Coverage generally depends on your employment classification. Rank-and-file employees are typically covered, while managerial employees and certain other categories defined under the Labor Code are generally excluded. Check with your employer or DOLE if you're unsure which applies to you.
